Answer 1

Answer:

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
