Armaan climbs up 5 stairs every second and then climbs down 2 stairs over the next second .how many second will he take to climb 60 stairs
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of steps climbed by armaan every second = 5 stairs
Number of steps climbed down by armaan the next second = 2 stairs
For every 2 seconds, the number of steps climbed by armaan = 3 stairs
Total number of steps climbed by armaan = 60 stairs
Therefore, time take by armaan = (60/3)(20) = 40 seconds
Time taken by armaan to climb 60 stairs = 40 – 1 = 39 seconds
This is because when he climbs 5 stairs, she reaches 60 stairs which makes her not to climb down the next second.
Step-by-step explanation:
He will climb 60 stairs on 39 seconds.
Armaan climbs up 5 stairs every second
He climb down 2 stairs over the next second
The net climb for Armaan is 3 stairs per 2 seconds.
Total he has to climb is 60 stairs
So he should take (60/3) *2=40 seconds.
Since in the last second he will not fall, he will reach a second before, that is by 39th second.
Time taken by Armaan to climb 60 stairs = 40 - 1 = 39 seconds
Hope it works..
