Answer 2

Answer:

Attempts taken by monkey to reach 10 meter = 8 attempts

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance needed to be climbed by the monkey = 10 meter

Now, Given that a monkey tries to climb 3 meter and slip down 2 meter every time due to the grease applied on the pole.

So, After 3 meter the monkey comes 2 meter down in 1 attempt

⇒ Monkey climbs 1 meter in 1 attempt

So, Monkey will climb 7 meter in 7 attempt

And the next attempt, The monkey will reach at 10 meter height

Attempts taken by monkey to reach 10 meter = 7 + 1 = 8 attempts
