Question
Find three machines that can be replaced with hook-ups of (× 5) machines.
Advertisements
Solution
Since, 52 = 25, 53 = 125, 54 = 625
Hence, (× 52), (× 53) and (× 54) machines can replace (× 5) hook-up machines.

Suppose you have a stretching machine which could stretch almost anything. For example, if you put a 5 metre stick into a (× 4) stretching machine (as shown below), you get a 20 metre stick. Now if you put 10 cm carrot into a (× 4) machine, how long will it be when it comes out?
Similarly, repeater machine is a hypothetical machine which automatically enlarges items several times. For example, sending a piece of wire through a (× 24) machine is the same as putting it through a (× 2) machine four times. So, if you send a 3 cm piece of wire through a (× 24) machine, its length becomes 3 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 48 cm. It can also be written that a base (2) machine is being applied 4 times.
