Question

The double number line shows that in 333 seconds an ostrich can run 636363 meters. Based on the ratio shown in the double number line, how far can an ostrich run in 555 seconds? Meters

Answer 1

Answer:

  105 m

Step-by-step explanation:

  distance/time = (63 m)/(3 s) = d/(5 s)

Multiplying by (5 s) gives the distance d as ...

  d = (5 s)(63 m)/(3 s) = 105 m

An ostrich can run 105 m in 5 seconds.

Answer 2

Answer:

It can run 105 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Time distance covered by ostrich in 3 seconds = 63 meters,

So, the distance covered by ostrich in 1 second = $\frac{63}{3}$ = 21 meters,

Thus, the distance covered by ostrich in 5 seconds = 5 × distance covered in 1 second

= 5 × 21

= 105 meters.
