Answer 1

Find out the how many hours would it take for a spider to go 5 miles .

To prove

As given

`If\ a\ spider\ can\ move\ (5)/(8)\ of\ a\ mile\ every\ hour`

Time taken to cover 1miles

`Time\ taken\ to\ cover\ 1miles =(8)/(5) hours`

`Time\ taken\ to\ cover\ 5miles = (5*8)/(5) hours`

solving the equation

Time taken to cover 5 miles = 8 hours .

Therefore Time taken to cover 5 miles be 8 hours .
