After Justin had stacked up 14 chairs in the parade square after a conference, he noticed 3 things. Firstly, each of the chairs was stacked the same height above the other. Secondly, the foot of the sixth chair was 43 cm above that of the first. Thirdly, the chairs reached a height of 205.3 cm. What is the height of each chair?
Number of chairs that contributed to the height of 43 cm above the first chair
= 6 - 1
= 5

Height increase with each additional stacked chair
= 43 ÷ 5
= 8.6 cm

Number of chairs stacked on top of the first chair
= 14 - 1
= 13

Height increase of 13 additional stacked chairs
= 13 x 8.6
= 111.8 cm

Height of one chair
= 205.3 - 111.8
= 93.5 cm

Answer(s): 93.5 cm
