Step-by-step explanation:
THE PERSON CLIMBS 5m AND SLIPS 1m
TO CLIMB Im HE TAKES 5 SECONDS
SO FOR 5m HE TAKES 5x5= 25 SECONDS
AS HE SLIPS 1m FOR EVERY 5m CLIMB
IN EACH ATTEMPT HE CLIMBS 5-1=4 m in 25 SECONDS
TOTAL HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING= 53m
SO HE WILL NEED 53/4= 13 (remainder 1 ignored as he will not slip after the last climb)
SO, TIME TAKEN TO CLIMB THE BUILDING = 25x13=325 SECONDS
ANS:: 325 SECONDS
