Question

If it takes you 40 seconds to travel from the first floor of a building to the third floor, how long will it take to travel from the first floor to the eighth floor (at the same pace, assuming all floors have equal height)? State your answer in seconds.

Answer 1

40/3 = 13

13 x 8 = 104

The answer is 104.

Answer 2

Answer: 104 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation: if it takes you 40 seconds to travel from the first to the third floor, then to pass one floor it will take 13 seconds. 40 divided by 3 which is 13. you then do 13x8 to figure out the time it would take you to travel through all the floors which is 104 seconds.
