Gap is 28. Whether 2x or 3x , gap remains true. Since 3:1, means gap equals 2 units. Boy will be 14. So 14-10=4

Hi, Candy Chan. You have to list out the length of the road that was build each day. Look at the figures below. :)
Day 1: 0.24 km
Day 2: 0.24 -0.06
Day 3: 0.24 - (0.06 x2)
Day 4: 0.24 - (0.06 x 3)
Day 5: 0.24 - (0.06 x 4) = 0
Hint 1: What should you do with the length of the road built from Day 1 to Day 4?
Hint 2: What about the remaining distance of 0.405 km? Why was it included in the word problem?
If you can answer both hints, you will find the total length of the road the contractor had to build. :)
