Guessing Game R #459

Posted by Cyberdevil May. 17, 2008 @ 3:37 PM EDT

Round 459!

You are on a ship, over the side hangs a rope ladder with half meter rungs. The tide rises a half meter per hour. At the end of five hours, how much of the ladder will remain above the water assuming that nine rungs were above the water when the tide began to rise?

9, the ship rises too :P

The rungs are attached to the boat, which FLOATS. They rise with the tide.
