It is really simple take 5 1/5 and divide it by 2 1/6 t get 2 30/78 you can then simplify that to get 2 5/13.  Then divide since it take 60 seconds for a minute divide 60 by 13 to get 4.61, multiply that by 5 to get 23.05.  Then add that to 2 and I believe that the ant can crawl 5 1/5 feet in 2 minutes and 23 seconds.  Or take 1/6 and 1/5 and try to get the same denominator.  6 x 5 is 30 and 5 x 6 is 30 so 1/6 = 5/30 and 1/5 = 6/30.  Then it is 2 5/30 and 5 6/30 divide them to get 2 2/5 minutes.  Or that can be turned into 2 minutes and 24 seconds.  Hope this helped if not then I am truly sorry.

For 2 1/6 = 13/6 Ft, ant takes = 1 min.
So, for 1 ft, it takes = 6/13 min.

Now, for 5 1/5 = 26/5 min. it would take = 6/13 * 26/512/5 = 2.4 min

In short, Your Answer would be 2.4 min

Hope this helps!

Find an equation of variation in which y varies directly as x and y=1 when x=0.5. Then find the value of y when x = 14.
FromTheMoon [43]

<u>Part 1</u>

The value of y is twice that of x, so the equation is y = 2x.

<u>Part 2</u>

Substituting in x = 14, we get y = 2(14) = 28.
