Question

monkey is climbing and oily pipe the monkey slips down 2 metres for every 5 metres it claims if the height of pipe is 25 how many jumps monkey need to reach the top of the pipe please solve full solution ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Assuming you mean a jump is 5 meters, after which the monkey slides down 2 meters, you are left with 3 meters each jump, with a 2 meter “grab reach”. You could write this as the formula: max height = 3*n+2, with n being the amount of jumps. Solving for max height of 25: (25 - 2)/3 = 23/3 = 7 2/3 or 8 jumps, rounded up..
