Question

Make a reasonable estimate for the situation. A snail moves at a speed of 3.395 inches per minute. If the snail keeps moving at this rate, about how many inches will it travel in 6.187 minutes?

Answer 1

Distance = 21.0049 inches

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 3.395 inches per minute.

Time = 6.187 minutes

To find the distance;

Distance = speed * time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Distance = 3.395 * 6.187

Distance = 21.0049
