Answer:

They run at the same speed

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find a way seeing how fast both animals run in the same amount of time. You can find out how fast they both run in one second.

60 feet in 6 seconds is how many feet in one second? Well, you can do 60/6 (60 divided by 6) and you will see that in one second, the cheetah can run 10 feet

100 feet in 10 seconds is how many feet in one second? Same thing, you can do 100/10 (100 divided by 10) and you will see that the gazelle can run 10 feet in one second.

Finally, you compare the two answers from the two animals. For the cheetah, we learned that it can run 10 feet in one second, and for the gazelle, we learned that it can run 10 feet in one second. So, we know that they run at the same speed.

Thank you! Please let me know if this was helpful!

Answer:

Cheeta's speed = 10 feet per second

Gazelle's speed = 10 feet per second

Hence, They run at the same speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determining the Cheeta's speed:

Covered distance = 60 feet

Time taken = 6 seconds

Speed = Covered distance / Time taken

           = 60 / 6

           = 10 feet per second

Therefore, Cheeta's speed is 10 feet per second.

Determining the Gazelle's speed:

Covered distance = 100 feet

Time taken = 10 seconds

Speed = Covered distance / Time taken

           = 100 / 10

           = 10 feet per second

Therefore, Gazelle's speed is 10 feet per second.

Conclusion:

Cheeta's speed = 10 feet per second

Gazelle's speed = 10 feet per second

Hence, They run at the same speed.
