Question

A dog takes 3 steps to walk the same distance for which a cat takes 4 steps. If 1 step of the dog covers 1/2 door how many feet will the cat cover on 24 steps?

Answer 1

Answer:

9 feet will the cat cover on 24 steps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A dog takes 3 steps to walk the same distance for which a cat takes 4 steps.

⇒ 3 steps of dog=4 steps of Cat

If 1 step of the dogs cover $\frac{1}{2}$ feet

then,

4 steps of cat=3 steps of dog

24 steps of cat=$\frac{3}{4}\times(24)$=18 steps of dog

Also, 1 step of the dogs cover=$\frac{1}{2}$ feet

18 steps of the dogs cover=9 feet

therefore, 24 steps of cat will cover 9 feet .
