There is a pole in a lake.
One-half of the pole is in the ground,
another one-third of it is covered by water,
& 8 ft is out of the water.
Then,
What is the total length of the pole in ft?

I agree with aravind
It would be 48 ft
1-1/2+1/3 = 1/6
1/6= 8 ft
half will be 24 and one third will be 16 total will be 48 ft
