During a triple jump, a competitor clears 6.90 m to his or her
bono first and bono of 5.65 m to the second. The total length of
his jump is 16.37 m. ¿How far did he take the last leap?
To find out how far the competitor took the last leap, we can subtract the sum of the first and second leaps from the total length of his jump.
Total distance = last leap + first leap + second leap
16.37 m = last leap + 6.90 m + 5.65 m
Now, subtract the sum of the first and second leaps from the total distance to find the last leap:
Last leap = 16.37 m - 6.90 m - 5.65 m
Last leap = 3.82 m
Therefore, the competitor took a leap of 3.82 m for his last jump.
