Question
In two years, half the tiles fall off from a wall. How
many years will it be when 75% of the tiles have fallen off?Solution
ATQ, If half the tiles fall off in two years, it means the rate of tiles falling off is 25% per year (since 50% over two years). To find out how many years it will take for 75% of the tiles to fall off, we can set up a proportion:
The ratio of the speed of two bus P and Q is 4 :7. If P takes 180 minutes more than Q to cover a certain distance, the find then actual time taken by Q ...
