Question

Nathan invented a robotic bug. The bug can crawl six centimeters in twenty-four seconds. How long would it take the bug to crawl forty-two centimeters?

​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Nathan invented a robotic bug when can crawl 6cm in 24 secs

so, to crawl 1cm it would take (24÷6) secs, i.e, 4secs

therefore, to crawl 42cm the bug would take (42×4) secs = 168 secs

So, to crawl forty-two centimeters the bug would take 168 secs or, 1min 48 secs.
