Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a construction project requiring 1,120 square meters of finishing, how many days would a power trowel take if covering an average of 140 square meters per day?

💡 Hint: Use the total area and divide it by the area covered per day.

Question 2
