GIVEN :-

  • A small ant climbs 3 cm in 1 minutes. But slips down 2 cm.

TO FIND :-

  • How much time will it take to climb 4 cm.

SOLUTION :-

Here in the question it is given that , A small ant climbs 3 cm in 1 minutes. But slips down 2 cm. Here the aunt climbs 3 cm and then slips down by 2 cm. So we can say that,

Distance in 1 minute = 3 - 2

➳ Distance in 1 minute = 1 cm.

Time to cover the distance of 4 cm,

➳ Time for 4 cm = 1 cm.

➳ Time for 4 cm = 1 × 4

➳ Time for 4 cm = 4 minutes.

Hence 4 minutes will be required to climb 4 cm.
