Hi Guys,
I tried to solve this problem and even after I read the explanation, I still could not figure out how to solve the question with the info given in the question. I understand the math in the explanation, in fact its quite simple.
How would you guys dice up this question? I feel like the n+1 info is a red herring...or am I completely missing the point?
On a scale that measures the intesity of a certain phenomenon, a reading of n+1 corresponds to an intensity that is 10 times the intensity corresponding to a reading of n. On that scale, the intensity corresponding to a reading of 8 is how many times as great as the intensity corresponding to a reading of 3?
