GIVEN

A monkey climbs 2m per second up a slippery pole and slips 1m over the next second. if the pole is 11m high.

TO FIND

How much time will he take to reach the top?

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as follows;

Height of pole = 11 meters

Height climbed in 1 second = 2m

Height slipped in 1 second = 1 meter

Height climbed in 2 seconds = 2-1 = 1 meter

Now,

Time taken by the monkey to climb 1 meter = 2 seconds

Time taken by monkey to climb 11 meters = 2 × 11 = 22 Seconds

Hence, The answer is 22 sec.
