Hey there,

Your question states: An ant crawls at a rate of 2 1/6 ft per minute. At this rate, how long dies it take the ant to crawl a distance of 5 1/5?

Your correct answer would be 3.

It take this (little ant) 3 minutes to walk a distance of 5 1/5

I did 5 1/5 + 3 minutes which got me 5 1/5.

Hope this helps.
