All 22 children were assigned to welcome visitors to a kindergarten function. They were to line up in a row from one end to the other end at an equal spacing of 1.2 m apart. On the day of the function, 7 of the children did not turn up. As a result, the remaining children had to line up from one end to the other end of the corridor at a new equal spacing. What was the new spacing between 2 children? Express the answer in metres.

Roger had two planks of the same length. He sawed one plank into equal parts of length 90 cm. In each part he drilled 6 small holes as shown in Figure 1. After that, he sawed the other plank into equal parts of length 1.5 m and in each part, he drilled 8 big holes as shown in Figure 2. When he finished drilling, he counted that there were 12 more small holes than big holes. If all the holes are spaced equally, how many holes were there altogether?
