Answers
Height of hot air balloon from ground level
= 496m
Rate of descending of hot air balloon
= 16m/min
Time taken by balloon to reach the ground
= height of balloon / rate of descending
= 496/16
= 31 min
if balloon wanted to reach at 224m it has to cover a distance of
= 496 - 224
= 272m. (for this see the attachment)
Time taken by balloon to reach the height 224m
above the ground
= (distance that has to be covered by balloon to
reach height of 224m ) / rate of descending
= 272 / 16
= 17min

Answer:
Ans is 17 Minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Height of hot air balloon from ground level=496m
Rate of descending=16m per min
Time taken by air balloon to reach the ground=496÷16=31 min
If the balloon wanted to reach at 224m is has to cover= 496-224
=272m
Time taken by th balloon to reach the height 224 m
above the ground
= distance that has to be covered by balloon
=272÷16
= 17min
