There are six poles on a side of a 1 km 200 m long straight road such that there is a pole at the starting and end points of the road. If the poles are equally spaced, then what is the distance between each consecutive pole?

Distance is 200m between each pole

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the length of the road into meters

        1km= 1000m

        1000m +200m= 1200m

There are 6 poles on the side and they're equally spaced

Divide the length of the road by the number of poles to get the distance between the poles

        Distance between poles= Length of road/ Number of poles

        Distance between poles= 1200m/ 6 poles

       Distance between poles= 200m

stops on an even number.
