Question

If a snail can crawl 2/ 3 yard in 1/5 hour, how many yards can the snail crawl in 1 hour?

Answer 1

$\begin{array}{ccc}\dfrac{2}{3}\ yd&-&\dfrac{1}{5}\ h\\\\x\ yd&-&1\ h\end{array}\ \ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}\cdot x=1\cdot\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}x=\dfrac{2}{3}\ \ \ \ |\cdot5\\\\x=\dfrac{10}{3}\\\\x=3\dfrac{1}{3}\ yd$

Answer: The snail can crawl 3 1/3 yd in 1 hour .

Answer 2

Hi,
The answer is 1219/3000000 Km/Hr
How I got my answer:
Convert yard to foot
3 foot=1 yard
2/3*3=2 foot
Now convert foot to km
1 foot=0.0003047 km
2 foot= 0.0003047*2
2 foot= 0.0006095 km
speed(yards can the snail crawl in 1 hour)=distance/time
speed=0.0006095/1.5 Km/Hr
speed=0.006095/15 Km/Hr
speed=0.001219/3 Km/Hr
speed=1219/3000000 Km/Hr
Hope this helps you.
