Question

Help !!! I’ve been stuck for 30 minutes

Answer 1

The answer is 139 and 1/3 or 139.333333...

Explanation:

To find the answer to this question, you have to find the unit rate of the bug's crawling speed. To do this, you divide the centimeters by the seconds. 6 centimeters/ 22 seconds= 3/11 cm per sec. Then you divide this value by 38 cm. 38 divided by 3/11 equals 139 and 1/3. So, the answer is 139 and 1/3 or 139.333333... I hope this helps and that you have a fantastic day.

Answer 2

418/3 sec

Explanation:

We know it can crawl 6 cm in 22 sec, so we set up a proportion:

`(6)/(22) =(38)/(x)` , where x is the time for the bug to crawl 38 cm

Cross multiplying, we get: 6x = 22 * 38 = 836; so, x = 836/6 = 418/3 sec

Thus, the answer is 418/3 seconds.

Hope this helps!
