Question

Tristan is building steps up to a deck that is 15656 yards above the ground. The steps must all be the same height. If he wants to make 8 steps, how high should he make each step?

Answer 1

Answer: 1957 yards

Explanation:

Given: The total height of steps from ground to deck= 15656 yards

The total number of steps he wants to make = 8

Then height of each steps =
`\frac{\text{Total height of steps}}{\text{Total number of steps}}`

⇒ Height of each step=
`(15656)/(8)`

⇒ Height of each step= 1957 yards

Hence, He should make each step 1957 yards high.
