Hi.
'She descended one flight of stairs.'

Means how many stairs she desceended?

Thanks in advance!

We don't know precisely, because a flight of stairs is just one straight section of steps before they change direction. Often, the height of one flight of stairs is the same as the distance between 2 floors of a building, but that is not necessarily so.
