Question

The animals of jungle are playing the game of long jump. There are $24$ , logs how many jumps will each animal take to cross $24$ logs?

The number of logs that can be jumped by an animal at a time is given.

Number of jumps taken by Zebra, Lion, Monkey, Bear.

Accepted Answer

Given,

Total number of logs $= 24$ .

Number of logs zebra jumps at a time $= 2$ .

We, need to find the total number of jumps taken by all the animals.

Number of total jumps $=$ Total number of logs $\div$ Number of logs zebra jumps at a time

$=$ $24 \div 2$

So, the division is,

$\overset{12}{224} - 2 04 - 4 0$

So, the quotient is $12$ .

Therefore, Zebra will jump for $12$ , times to cross all logs.

Number of logs lion jumps at a time $= 4$

Total number of jumps $=$ Total number of logs $\div$ Number of logs lion jumps at a time

$= 24 \div 4$

So, the division is,

$\overset{6}{424} - 24 00$

So, the quotient is $6$ .

Therefore, Lion will jump for $6$ times to cross all logs.

Number of logs monkey jumps at a time $= 6$

Total number of jumps $= 24 \div 6$

So, the division is,

$\overset{4}{624} - 24 00$

So, the quotient is $4$ .

Therefore, Monkey will jump for $4$ , times to cross all logs.

Given,

Total number of logs $= 24$

Number of logs bear jumps at a time $= 3$

Total number of jumps $=$ Total number of logs $\div$ Number of logs bear jumps at a time

$= 24 \div 3$

So, the division is,

$\overset{8}{324} - 24 00$

So, the quotient is $8$ .

Therefore, Bear will jump for $8$ , times to cross all logs.
