18 m
How to work out the problem
• The rubber ball rebounds half the height it drops. So since it is dropping from 18 m and it
rebounds half it wil only go up 9 m
• 18/2 = 9 m
9m
How to work out the problem
• The ball hits the ground another time. To hit a total of 3 times! Since the last height of the ball was
9 m you wil divide that by half to get 4.5 m
• 9/2 = 4.5 m 18 m
4.5 m
How to work out the problem
• The problem wants to know the total distance traveled by the ball.
9 m
54. m
18 + 9 + 9 + 4.5 + 4.5 = ?
How to work out the problem
• The answer that you should get is c. 45 m
18 + 9 + 9 + 4.5 + 4.5 = 45 m
