1. A 40 meters long rope is divided into two parts and the one part is 18 meters more than the other one. What is the smaller part?
- A. 5 meters
- B. 5 meters
- C. 5 meters
- D. 5 meters
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let,
shorter length = X
∴ Bigger length = X + 18
ATQ,
X + (X + 18) = 40
2x + 18 = 40
2x = 40 - 18
2x = 22
∴ x = 11
