Question 3.
To conduct Sports Day activities, in your rectangular shaped school ground ABCD, lines have been drawn with chalk powder at a distance of 1 m each. 100 flower pots have been placed at a distance of 1 m from each other along AD, as shown in given
figure below. Niharika runs $\frac { 1 }{ 4 }$ th the distance AD on the 2nd line and posts a green flag. Preet runs $\frac { 1 }{ 5 }$ th distance AD on the eighth line and posts a red flag. What is the distance between both the flags? If Rashmi has to post a blue flag exactly halfway between the line segment joining the two flags, where should she post her flag?

Solution:

The blue flag is in the 5th line, at a distance of 22.5 m.
