The color of 1/5th of a pole is red , 1/3 is green and rest is white.If the length of the part which is white is 7 meters. Find the length of the flag pole.
-----
white = 1-(1/5+1/3) = 1-[(8/15)] = 7/15 of the pole.
-------
Let the length of the pole be "x":
Equation:
(7/15)x = 7 meters
x = 15 meters
