Explanation / Answer

I am solving the first question, Q1 in this case as per Chegg guidelines, post multiple question to get the remaining answers

Q1)

Man runs from first floor to third floor in 20 seconds.

So, he ran two flooprs in 20 seconds, which makes 20/2 seconds per floor or 10 seconds per floor

Since the rate is 10 seconds per floor, if he wants to go from floor 1 to floor 6, then the time taken will be

(6-1) floor * 10 sec/floor = 50 seconds

Hence the time taken in this case will be equal to 50 seconds
