Question

Which animal traveled at a rate of 1.5 meters per minute?

Answer 1

Answer: Ant

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to calculate the speed rate of each animal by dividing the distance travelled by the time spent, in each case.

• Turtle: 6 mts, 5 min: 6/5=1.2 meters per minute
• Snail: 4 mts, 8 min: 4/8 = 0.5 meters per minute
• Caterpillar: 7mts, 7min: 7/7= 1 meter per minute
• Ant: 12mts, 8min: 12/8 = 1.5 meters per minute

The ant travelled at a rate of 1.5 meters per minute.

Answer 2

Answer:

The ant

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the meters traveled is going to be more than the amount of minutes because it is 1.5:1 so that narrows it down to the turtle and the ant.

Now we can just take 150% of each and see if they match up.

150% of 5 is 7.5 so therefore it is not the Turtle which means it must be the ant.

Hope this helped ! !
