Q26 2022, Speed, Time and Distance

On one side of a 1.01 km long road, 101 plants are planted at equal distance from each other. What is the total distance between 5 consecutive plants?

1.01 km लम्बी सड़क के एक किनारे एक-दूसरे से समान दूरी पर 101 पौधे रोपे गए हैं। 5 क्रमागत पौधों के बीच कुल कितनी दूरी है?

Explanation Please wait..

Total Distance = 1.01 km = 1.01 × 1000 = 1010 m.

Now, 101 plants means there will be 100 parts between them.

Thus 1010/100 = 10.10m will be the distance between each tree.

So five consecutive plants will have 4 such distances.

Thus total distancebetween 5 consecutive plants will be 4 × 10.1 = 40.4 m.
