John starts out in the basement parking garage, 11m below street level. He climbs all the steps to the roof of the building and is now 72m above street level. how many metres has he climbed? Mary join John at the third strey.Each story is 3m high. She accompanies Johnto the roof. How many metres does she climb.
Ok...so John starts below the street at 11 meters and finally ends at 72 meters. depending on whether this is a trick question or not it could be either 83 meters or 72 meters. Now dealing with Mary, she started climbing the steps on the third strey (did you mean story?)And according to the information given, each story is 3 meters high. So given that we would divide 3 from 72 and that gives you 24 meters. There is 24 storys to this building and since she started at the third story, just subtract the amount of storys beneath her from the total number of storys in the building. Then with the amount of storys that she did climb, multiply them by 3.
In order to find out how many meters John has climbed, we need to calculate the difference between his starting point and his final position.
John starts out in the basement parking garage, which is 11m below street level. He climbs to the roof, which is 72m above street level.
The total distance John climbs can be calculated by adding the difference between his starting and ending heights:
Total distance John climbs = Height of ending position - Height of starting position
Total distance John climbs = 72m - (-11m)
Total distance John climbs = 83m
Therefore, John has climbed a total of 83 meters.
Now, let's calculate the number of meters Mary has climbed when she joins John at the third story.
Mary joins John on the third story, and each story is 3 meters high.
Mary climbs from the third story to the roof, which is 72m above street level.
The total distance Mary climbs can be calculated by multiplying the number of stories she climbs by the height of each story:
Total distance Mary climbs = Number of stories climbed * Height of each story
Total distance Mary climbs = (3 stories) * (3m/story)
Total distance Mary climbs = 9m
Therefore, Mary climbs a total of 9 meters.
To determine how many meters John has climbed, we need to find the difference between the roof level and the basement level. We subtract the height of the basement from the height of the roof:
Total height climbed by John = Height of the roof - Height of the basement
= 72m - (-11m)
= 72m + 11m
= 83 meters
Therefore, John has climbed a total of 83 meters.
Now, let's find out how many meters Mary has climbed. Each story is 3 meters high, and she joins John at the third story. To compute Mary's climbing distance, we need to find how many stories she has climbed first.
Number of stories Mary climbed = Total stories in the building - Stories joined at
= (Roof height / Story height) - (Third story)
= (72m / 3m) - 3
= 24 - 3
= 21 stories
Next, we calculate the height climbed by Mary by multiplying the number of stories by the height of each story:
Height climbed by Mary = Number of stories Mary climbed * Story height
= 21 stories * 3m
= 63 meters
Therefore, Mary has climbed a total of 63 meters.
