First of all, to simplify a number/fraction, you must find a common multiple.
Both 12 and 42 is divisible by 6
$\frac{12}{42}$ = $\frac{2}{7}$ since 6 goes into 12, two times and goes into 42, 7 times. The answer is $\frac{2}{7}$ when simplified.

A scientist finds the distances d that two snakes travel in a time of t seconds. the equation 16t = d represents the relationshi

wlad13 [49]

From the equation given, the time for the black mamba snake to cover distance d, will be d/16 while that for the the rought-scaled snake would be d/1.5.
Assume that the distance covered by both snakes is 200 meters;
Then,
Time taken by the black mamba is 200/16 = 12.5 seconds, and
Time taken by the rought-scaled snake is 200/1.5 = 133.33 seconds
Clearly the black mamba is faster at 12.5 seconds compared with the rought-scaled snake.
