A driver of a car wants to cover a total distance of 1000 KM. Apart from the 4 tires of the car, he has also in his disposal a spare tire. If he wants to use equally all the tires of the car, how much distance each tire should cover?
Answer: 800 KM
Explanation: Let Tire numbers be 1,2,3,4,5 1) Use Tire 1234 for 0-200 km 2) Use Tire 1235 for 2000-400 km 3) Use Tire 1254 for 4000-600 km 4) Use Tire 1534 for 6000-800 km 5) Use Tire 5234 for 8000-1,000 km As you may have noticed, each Tire is used 4 times so total of 200×4 = 800 KM As we can see each Tire gets to run 800 km Correct answer: 800 KM
