Question

In a garden, 26 trees are planted at equal distances along a yard 300 metres long, one tree being at each end of the yard. what is the distance between two consecutive trees? 10

Answer 1

Since two trees are at the end the gaps are :

26 - 2 = 24

The total distance is 300m

The distance between two consecutive trees is :

300/24 = 12.5m
