Question

A bengal tigers tail is around 30% of its total length. The total length of one bengal tiger's tail is 96 cm. Around how long is the tiger?

Answer 1

The length of the tiger is 320 cm.

Explanation:

Let the height of a bengal tiger be x.

It is given that the length of tiger tail is around 30% of its total length.

The length of tiger's tail is
`(30)/(100)x`.

The total length of a bengal tiger's tail is 96 cm.

`(30)/(100)x=96`

`30x=9600`

`x=(9600)/(30)`

`x=320`

Therefore the length of the tiger is 320 cm.
