Afterhe bought the posts and wire, he found that the number of posts he had bought was 5 less thanrequired. However, he discovered that the number of posts he had bought would be just sufficient ifhe spaced them 8 m apart. What is the length of the side of his property and how many posts did hebuy?

1) 100m,15
2) 100m,16
3) 120m,15
4) 120m,16

Read Solution (Total 1)

let x be number of poles brought and y be the perimeter.,
case 1 : when fitting 8 m apart
(y/8)+1 = x
case 2 : when fitting 6 m apart
(y/6)+1 = x-5
by solving we get 120m ,16 .
