Suppose you have a stretching machine which could stretch almost anything. For example, if you put a 5 metre stick into a (× 4) stretching machine (as shown below), you get a 20 metre stick. Now if you put 10 cm carrot into a (× 4) machine, how long will it be when it comes out?

योग

उत्तर

According to the question, if we put a 5 m stick into a (× 4) stretching machine, then machine produces 20 m stick.

Similarly, if we put 10 cm carrot into a (× 4) stretching machine, then machine produce 10 × 4 = 40 cm stick.
