Answer/ Step-by-step explanation:

I found the very small mistake Wxlfie made:

12*2 = 24

16*2 = 32

24 + 32 = 56

56/4 = 14

The ant should walk 14 inches per minute.

Have a nice day! :)

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

12 and 16 are your sides and since it says to go around then you are looking at perimiter.

So you need to add the sides up.

12*2=24 16*2=32 24+32=57

so it takes 57 miles to walk around the entire thing but you need to in in 4 minutes so divide it by 4.

57/4 = 14.25 per minute.
