Michael was 1.0 metres tall, and could only reach up to the 1st floor lift button. .
From the 1st floor, he had to walk up 100
steps to reach the 6th floor.
Vinh was 1.4 metres tall, and could reach
the 5th floor button. He had to walk up
20 steps to reach the 6th floor.
Lucy was 1.1 metres tall. To reach the
6th floor, how many steps did she have to
walk up?

Lucy must walk up 80 steps to reach the 6th floor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Michael was 1.0 meters tall, and could only reach up to the 1st floor lift button, and from the 1st floor, he had to walk up 100 steps to reach the 6th floor; while Vinh was 1.4 meters tall, and could reach the 5th floor button, and he had to walk up 20 steps to reach the 6th floor; If Lucy was 1.1 meters tall, to determine how many steps did she have to walk up to reach the 6th floor, the following calculation must be performed:

1 = 100

1.4 = 20

1.4 - 1 = 100 - 20

0.4 = 80

0.1 = X

0.1 x 80 / 0.4 = X

20 = X

100 - 20 = 80

Therefore, Lucy must walk up 80 steps to reach the 6th floor.
