A rabbit travel 20 minutes in five minutes. At this speed how far can a rabbit travel in 12 minutes
20 minutes in five minutes???
Assuming that you meant 20 distance units:
20/5 = x/12
Solve for x.
To determine how far a rabbit can travel in 12 minutes at the given speed, we can set up a proportion.
Let's define "D" as the distance the rabbit can travel in 12 minutes.
We know that the rabbit can travel 20 minutes in 5 minutes, so we can set up the following equation:
20 minutes / 5 minutes = D / 12 minutes
To solve for D, we can cross-multiply:
20 minutes * 12 minutes = 5 minutes * D
240 minutes = 5 minutes * D
Now, we can calculate D by dividing both sides of the equation by 5 minutes:
D = 240 minutes / 5 minutes
D = 48
Therefore, the rabbit can travel 48 units of distance (whether it be meters, kilometers, or any other unit of length) in 12 minutes at this speed.
