Question

Find by how many times Tree 2 is taller than Tree 1.

• A. 3

Answer 1

The correct option is A 3
Height of Tree 1 = $\frac{25}{3}$ m

Height of Tree 2 = $\frac{75}{3}$ m

To find by how many times Tree 2 is taller than Tree 1, we have to divide the height of Tree 2 by height of Tree 1.

$\frac{75}{3}$ $÷$ $\frac{25}{3}$

=$\frac{75}{3}$ $\times$ $\frac{3}{25}$

= 3

Hence, Tree 2 is 3 times taller than Tree 1.
