Question

if a pole is is colored 1/3 part red 1/5 part green 14 m yellow what is the length of the pole in metres​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let, the whole pole's hight is = 1

so, the pole is painted red = (1/3 of 1)

= 1/3

again, the pole is painted blue = (1/2 of 1)

= 1/2

the pole is total painted = (1/3 + 1/2)

= {(2+3)/6}

= 5/6

so, the part of pole left = (1-5/6)

= {(6-5)/6}

= 1/6

If 1/6 is = 4 feet

so, 1 is = (6*4*1)/1

= 24

That means, the whole pole is 24 feet

answer: 24 feet
