Let the total distance of the pole be x
the part underground = x * 1/6
the part in water = x* 1/4
the rest = 14m
therefore the total distance, x= x*1/6 + x*1/4 + 14
x( 1 - 1/6 - 1/4 ) = 14
x=24m
the part underground = x * 1/6
the part in water = x* 1/4
the rest = 14m
therefore the total distance, x= x*1/6 + x*1/4 + 14
x( 1 - 1/6 - 1/4 ) = 14
x=24m
