Question

13. It takes Seymore, a slimy slug, 20 minutes to travel from his favorite bush to the local trash can (a distance of 30 meters), how far can he travel in 1 hour (60 minutes)?

Answer 1

90 meters

Explanation:

From the question we are to calculate the distance that the slug can move in 60 minutes.

From the question, we know that:

20 minutes = 30 meters

60 minutes = x meters

Cross Multiply

20 minutes × x meters = 30 meters × 60 minutes

x meters = 30 meters × 60 minutes/20 minutes

x meters = 90 meters
