supposing a clock takes 7 seconds to strike 7.How long will it take to strike 10?
Read Solution (Total 3)
-
- to strike 7 times(say n times) it takes 6 breaks(ie,(n-1)) which totally takes 7 seconds.
so the time taken between two successive strikes is 7/6 seconds.
thus to strike 10 times it needs 9 breaks so it will take (7/6)*9 seconds
thus the answer is 10.5 seconds... - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(13) No(1)
- its takes 6 breaks for 7 seconds....therefore total no of strikes for 7 seconds->6 breaks+1.hence for 10 seconds=(6/7)*10+1=9.5
