Question

Ronit has 3 ropes. one rope was 2 m long which is 35cm more than the length second rope. The third rope was 1/2 m shorter than the first rope. To make a longer rope he tied the 3 ropes with each other and at each knot 5 cm goes from both the ropes that come in contact. what would be the length of the resulting longer rope?​

Answer 1

Answer:

495cm

Step-by-step explanation:

first rope=2m=200cm

second rope=200-35=165cm

third rope=200-50=150cm

Total length=200+165+150

=515cm

At every tie 5cm was gone from each rope

2 ties are tied so 20cm are gone

so 515-20=495cm

Longest rope=495cm

Answer 2

given Ronit has three ropes

let the length of 1st rope=2m

length of 2nd rope is 35cm shorter than 1st rope

200cm-35cm=165cm

1.65m

length of 3rd rope is 1/2 shorter than 1st rope

200cm-50cm=150cm

1.5m

given that

he tied 3 ropes and 5cm is goes from each rope together

200cm-5cm=195

2nd rope loses 10 cm because it is in middle it tied to 2 ropes

165cm-10cm=155cm

3rd rope loses 5cm

150cm-5cm=145

adding these three values

195+155+145=495cm

4.95m
