Question

Priya planted 5 saplings in a row in her garden . the distance between two adjacent saplings is 3/5m . Find the distance between the first and the last sapling​

Answer 1

Answer:

2.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

number of saplings = 5

distance between two saplings =3/5

consider saplings have numbering as 1,2,3,4,5

so, distance between 1,5 = (1,2)+(2,3)+(3,4)+(4,5)

as they all are at equal distance,

distance between 1,5 = 4 * 3/5 = 12/5 = 2.4m

note: don't get confuse between number of points as number of distance between them
