Question

A monkey it's trying to climb a pole measuring 15m.
Which is greased.He tries to climb 3m and slips
down 2m every time. In how many times (attempts) will the monkey be able to climb 10m of the pole.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The monkey climb 3m and slips down 2m each time

⇒ net gain = 3 - 2 = 1m

Find the number of attempts needed to reach the 7m mark:

Each attempt = 1 m gain

Length of the pole = 10 m

Number of attempts needed to reach the 7m mark = 7 ÷ 1 = 7

Find the total number of attempts needed:

Number of attempts needed = 7 + 1 = 8

(The last attempt of a 3m climb made at the 7m mark will reach end of the pole)

So, the monkey needs 8 attempts to climb 10m of the pole.
