Rising Tide....
The rope ladder of a boat hangs over the side of the boat and just reaches the water.
Its rungs are 8 inches apart. How many rungs will be under the water when the tide rises 4 feet?

The same number that was underwater before the tide rose. The boat will rise with the tide. Right?
Ditto what debadee said. The rungs will rise with the boat - hopefully!
So.. I meant to say ZERO rungs... And that's my final answer...tee hee hee
I agree with alicia. no rings will be under water... the boat will rise with the tide..
Survey says; When the tide rises 4 feet, the boat and its ladder will also rise. So no rungs will be under the water.
Shoosh...we are all so smart!!
