Question

One third of a bamboo is buried in mud, one sixth of it is in water and the part above the water is greater than or equal to 3 meters. Find the length of the shortest pole.​

Answer 1

Answer:

6m

Step-by-step explanation:

Buried in mud: 3

In and above the water: 6

Total buried in the mud and in/above the water: 3 + 6 = 3 ÷ 6 = 2m

The length of the shortest pole?

Based to the question,

2m + 3m = ...?

= 2m x 3m

= 6 m

The length of the shortest pole is 6m.
