3.3 meters = 330 cm. 330/22 = 15 intervals. So there are 16 steps enclosing the 15 intervals, but this includes both floors. Therefore there are 14 steps, not counting the floors.

Understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why 330/22?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

means divide

OpenStudy (anonymous):

330 divided by 22 = 15

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
