a certain height of the pole is fixed in a lake whose one third is mud and one fourth is sand and remaining water.find the total length of the pole.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
let total length of the pole is x.
mud=x/3
sand=x/4
total=x/3+x/4
=7x/12
remaining=x-7x/12
=5x/12
Given : A certain height of pole is fixed in a lake whose one third is in mud, one fourth of the remaining in sand and half of the remaining in water.
rest 6 m is seen above water,
To find : total length of the pole.
Solution:
Let say pole height = 12P m
one third is in mud = (1/3)12P = 4P m
Remaining = 12P - 4P = 8P m
one fourth of the remaining in sand = (1/4) 8P = 2P m
Remaining = 8P - 2P = 6P m
half of the remaining in water = (1/2)6P = 3P m
Remaining = 6P - 3P = 3P m
rest 6 m is seen above water
=> 3P = 6
=> P = 2
pole height = 12P m = 12 x 2 = 24 m
