Final answer:
Ryan travels 10 yards in 4 seconds on his unicycle. To find out how long it takes him to travel 25 yards, you calculate 25 yards * (4/10 seconds), resulting in 10 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question is asking how long it will take Ryan to travel 25 yards on his unicycle if he travels 10 yards every 4 seconds. To find the answer, we use a ratio based on the information provided: If 10 yards are traveled in 4 seconds, then to travel 1 yard, it would take 4/10 seconds. Hence, to travel 25 yards, we would multiply 25 yards by (4/10), which simplifies the calculation to 25 yards * (2/5) seconds.
The calculation is as follows:
- Multiply 25 yards by the time it takes to travel 1 yard: 25 yards * (2/5) seconds.
- Calculate the result: 25 * 2/5 = 50/5 = 10 seconds.
Therefore, it would take Ryan 10 seconds to travel 25 yards on his unicycle.
