Question

Hikha plants 5 saplings in a row in her garden. the distance between two adjacent saplings is ¾ m. find the distance between the first and the last sapling.

Answer 1

distance between 1st and 2nd sapling = 3/4m

similarly distance between 2nd and 3rd, 3rd and 4th, 4th and 5th = 3/4m

adding all the distances = 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4

=12/4

=3 m

distance between 1st and last sapling = 3m
