Solution

Dear Student,

$W e u s e u n i t a r y m e t h o d h e r e : I n 14 s t e p s, r o h a n c o v e r e d = 2.8 m I n 1 s t e p, r o h a n c o v e r s = \frac{2.8}{14} I n 150 s t e p s, R o h a n w i l l c o v e r = \frac{2.8}{14} \times 150 = 2 \times 15 = 30 m$
We can also use ratio proportion method:

$L e t d i s \tan c e c o v e r e d i n 150 s t e p s b e x, A T Q, I n 14 s t e p s, h e c o v e r s 2.8 m a n d i n 150 s t e p s h e w i l l c o v e r x m e t r e s . S o, 14 : 2.8 : : 150 : x P r o d u c t o f e x t r e m e = P r o d u c t o f m e a n 14 \times x = 2.8 \times 150 x = \frac{2.8 \times 150}{14} x = 30 m$

Regards.
