Question

Choose the correct answers from the alternative given :
In a row. 25 trees are planted at equal distance from each other. The distance between 1st and 25th tree is 30 m.
What is the distance between 3rd and 15th tree?

• A. $8$ m
• B. $15$ m
• C. $16$ m
• D. $18$ m

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$15$ m

Let distance between two consecutive trees be x m.
So, distance between 1st and 25th tree = 24x m = $30$ m
Distance between 3rd and 15th = 12x m = $15$
