x+y+z
—– = 6800
3
x>=6400
6400 + y + z = 20400
y + z = 14000

so, z = 7600
so ANS is 7600

Ques:- A person needs 6 steps to cover a distance of one slab. If he increases his foot length (step length) by 3 inches, he needs only 5 steps to cover the slabs length. What is the length of the each slab
Recent Answer : Added by Gary On 2021-08-23 11:42:46:

90 inches

Slab = 6(x) where x is each step
Slab = 5(x + 3)

6(x) = 5(x + 3)
6(x) = 5(x) + 15
x = 15 inches

So 6(x) = 6(15) = 90

Check: 5( x + 3) = 5(18) = 90

Slab size is 90 inches

Recent Answer : Added by Davemark Kigen On 2021-09-28 17:28:21:

Monday =y cheques
Tuesday =3y cheques
wednesday=4000 cheques
totaling to 16000 cheques
therefore y+3y+4000=16000 cheques
4y+4000=16000 cheques therefore 4y=16000-4000 cheques= 4y=12000cheques
therefore y=12000/4=3000 cheques
monday=3000 cheques
tuesday=3×3000=9000cheques
