Creating a stairway to success...

Posted by on

Math Challenge...

Here's a math problem that was given to us to solve...
 Let's suppose that you are working in the school hall to help with setting up the stage for a play or an assembly. Perhaps you've got a stage that is raised up and there are some steps that lead up to the stage. From the side, the steps might look a bit like this:-








These steps have been made up using blocks so that you go up a total of 6 and along with a total of 6

The steps could have been made up another way:-
In this case, the steps are not equal and some of them need you to make a big step up. Well, that does not matter.
