If there were 49 cars in a line that stretched 528 feet, what is the average car length? assume that the cars are lined up bumper-to-bumper

Answer: We are given there are 49 cars

Also these 49 cars are in a line stretched 528 feet.

Now the average length of the car is:

Average length =
((length-covered-by-49-cars))/(Number-of-cars)

=
(528)/(49)=10.78

Therefore, the average length of car is 10.78 feet
