Sunita has planted 10 trees along a straight road The first tree was planted at the beginning of the road and the last tree at its end The distance between two neighbouring trees was 75 m. How long was the road?

D600 m

Correct answer is (C).SolutionLength of road = (Number of trees - 1) x 75 = (10 - 1) x 75 = 9 x 75 = 675m(10 - 1) because number of gaps between the trees only should be considered.

I forgot to see that we had to count the gap and not the tree. That is probably why I got it wrong
