Question

If a snail crawls 12 centimeters per hour, how long will it take for the snail to travel 1 meter?

Answer 1

Answer:

snail will take 8 hours and 20 minutes to crawl 1 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we can calculate the time traveled by snail in 1 meter by applying unitary method.

∵ Snail crawls 12 centimeter distance in the time = 1 hour

∴ Snail crawls 1 centimeter in the time = $\frac{1}{12}$ hour

∴ Snail will crawl 100 centimeters (1 meter) = $\frac{100}{12}$ hours

                                                                       = $8\frac{1}{3}$ hours

                                                                       = 8hours 20minutes

Therefore, snail will take 8 hours and 20 minutes to crawl 1 meter.

Answer 2

8 1/3 hours :)))))))))))))))))

12x=100
X=100/12
X= 8 1/3
