      B 45 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 48 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 41 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the length of the rod be x metres. According to the question, x – [(x/5) + (x/10) + (x/15) + (x/20) + (x/25) + (x/30)] =24.48 x – [1 – {(60 + 30 + 20 + 15 + 12 + 10)/300}] = 24.48 x – (1 – 147/300) = 12.08 x (300 – 147)/300 = 24.48 x = (24.48 x 300)/153 x = 48mΒ
