Question

Which of the following tree is the tallest ?

• A. Banyan tree
• B. Apple tree
• C. Oak tree
• D. All the trees are of same height

Answer 1

The correct option is C Oak tree

$\text{We have to compare the height of the}$ $\text{given trees.}$

$\text{To do so, we have to make the units}$ $\text{same.}$

$\text{As we know that,}$
$\text{1 yard (yd) = 3 feet (ft)}$


$\text{Hence, let's convert the height into}$ $\text{feet.}$

$\text{Height of the banyan tree = 5 yd}$
$⟹\text{5}\times 3\text{= 15 ft}$

$\text{Height of the apple tree = 17 ft}$

$\text{Height of the oak tree = 6 yd}$
$⟹\text{6}\times 3\text{= 18 ft}$

$\text{Now let's identify the tallest tree}$ $\text{amongst the given 3 trees.}$


$\text{We can see that the oak tree is the}$ $\text{tallest one.}$
