Question:
Mr Gan ordered 45 pots of plants to decorate the corridor for a school concert. They were to be placed in a straight row from one end to the other end of the corridor at an equal spacing of 1.2 m apart.
On the day of the concert, Mr Gan was short of 11 pots of plants. As a result, the remaining pots of plants had to be placed from one end to the other end of the corridor at a new equal spacing.
What was the new spacing between 2 pots of plants?
