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.

The diagram shows 3 containers of different dimensions, each separated by a partition. Tank C, measuring 20 m by 15 m by 21 m, is filled with water to its brim. Tank B is an empty cuboidal container with a length of 10 m. Slider 1 is lifted to release 14 of the water from Tank C to Tank B, after which the partition is slid down to separate Tank C and Tank B. Next, Slider 2 is removed and some water from Tank B flows into Tank A such that the height of the water level of Tank B and Tank A is 7 m.
  1. What is the length of Tank A?
  2. How many m3 of water are there in Tank B?

At a swimathon, each swimmer completed either a 2-km route, a 4-km route or an 5-km route. 15 of the swimmers completed the 2-km route, 720 of the participants completed the 4-km route and the rest completed the 5-km route. For every 1 km a participant swam, $8 was donated to charity. A total of $12960 was donated to charity.
  1. What is the ratio of the number of swimmers who completed the 2-km route to the number who completed the 4-km route to the number who completed the 5-km route?
  2. What is the total number of swimmers at the swimathon?

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?
