Question

An office building has 10 floors of the same height. How many times as far from the ground is the ninth floor than the third floor?

Answer 1

3 Times

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of each floor = x

Therefore, the height of the ninth floor = 9x ; and

The height of the 3rd floor = 3x

`(9x)/(3x)=3`

Therefore, the ninth floor is 3 times as far as the third floor.
