There is well of depth 30m and frog is at bottom of the well. He jumps 3m up one day and falls back 2m down the same day. How many days will it take for the frog to come out of the well?
A
25 days
B
26 days
C
27 days
D
28 days
E
29 days
Correct answer: D
Explanation
frog jumps 3 m up day & falls back 2 m down at night
so,frog will be 3-2=1 m up in a day.
Thus, in 27 days it will be 27 m up
on 28 th day it will be at top i.e 27+3 = 30 m & will not fall down.
