The students in Mr. Stevens class are having a turtle race. The race will last 2 minutes. Find the distance from the start each turtle will be at the of the race.Rex 1/6 speed (in inches per second).Whatwas the distance at the end of the race.
1/6 * 120 = ?

Turtle must of pooped big time.
To find the distance each turtle will be at the end of the race, we first need to calculate how far each turtle can travel in 2 minutes (120 seconds).
Since Rex's speed is given as 1/6 speed, we need to determine how far Rex can travel in 1 second and then multiply that by 120 to get the total distance covered in 2 minutes.
To find the distance Rex travels in 1 second, we divide his speed by the number of seconds in a minute:
1/6 speed x (1 minute / 60 seconds) = (1/6) * (1/60) = 1/360 distance per second
Now, we multiply the distance Rex travels in 1 second by 120 to get the distance covered in 2 minutes:
1/360 distance per second x 120 seconds = 1/360 * 120 = 0.3333... inches
So, at the end of the race, Rex will be approximately 0.3333... inches from the starting point.
