ok so i am a 2nd year college student that is currently studying elementary education. i want to be a teacher. im in a math class where they teach you how to teach math to younger kids. i am working on problem solving right now. i just needed help on two questions.
this question i had trouble figuring out
1. How can 7 trees be planted so that there are 6 rows of trees in a straight line with each row having 3 trees?
I could not figure that one out, i didnt even know where to start. but i always make things harder than they are so its probably really simple.
2. ( I did this problem already, but im not sure if i have the correct answer)
An office building has 33 floors, each 10 feet high and elevators that travel at a constant speed. If it takes 10 seconds for an elevator to go from the first floor to the fifth floor, how long will it take an elevator to go from the fifth floor to the middle floor?
the middle floor is 16.5, because there are 33 floors. I got 20.15 seconds. I dont know if thats right.
