Question

The distance between two telephone poles is 50 meters. If there are 10 poles between them, what is the total distance covered?

a) 400 m
b) 500 m
c) 550 m
d) 450 m

Answer 1

The total distance covered is 500 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance covered can be calculated by multiplying the distance between each pole by the number of poles in between. In this case, the distance between each pole is 50 meters and there are 10 poles in between, so the total distance covered is 50 meters * 10 poles = 500 meters.

Therefore, the correct answer is b) 500 m.
