Question

Centipedes have 2 legs per segments the record number of legs on a millipede is 752. Find a range for the number of segments a centipede can have

Answer 1

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Centipedes have 2 legs per segment

Record number of 752 legs

Generally the millipede has two legs per segment

`2 legs= 1 segment`

Therefore

`(752)/(2) =376`

is the is the maximum segment of the millipede

if millipedes have 30 to 752 legs

Therefore

`(30)/(2)= 15`

Given

15,376 leg segments

the range is 15,376
