Question

Agatha and rupert are two frogs in a beautiful meadow. Agatha is 8 dm from the path that runs through the meadow. Rupert is 18 dm from the path. A hiker enjoying a lovely spring day walks down the path and startles the frogs. Agatha makes 5 jumps and Rupert makes 2. Both frogs end up the same distance from the path. The amazing thing is that all the jumps of both frogs are exactly the same. How long is each frog jump?

Answer 2

well u start off with

path 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8(a) 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18(r) 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

and a makes five jumps r makes 2

so if they jump 1, a=13, r =20

jump 2, a=18, r=22

jump 3, a =23, r=24

and so on....
