Steady Tortoise stated crawling from Woody Woods to Fresh Forest at 7:30 a.m. Sprightly Rabbit left Woody Woods for Fresh Forest at 8:00 a.m. and caught up with Steady Tortoise at 10:00 a.m. Rabbit reached Fresh Forest at 11:00 a.m. When will Tortoise reach the Forest? Give answer in a.m. or p.m.
I will gladly critique your work or thought process, when shown
To answer this question, we need to find out the time it takes for the Rabbit to catch up with the Tortoise and then determine the time it takes for the Tortoise to reach Fresh Forest from that point.
Let's start by calculating the time it took for the Rabbit to catch up with the Tortoise. The Rabbit left Woody Woods at 8:00 a.m. and caught up with the Tortoise at 10:00 a.m. Hence, it took the Rabbit 2 hours to catch up with the Tortoise (10:00 a.m. - 8:00 a.m.).
Next, we need to find out how long it took for the Rabbit to reach Fresh Forest after catching up with the Tortoise. The Rabbit reached Fresh Forest at 11:00 a.m., so the time it took for the Rabbit to cover the remaining distance from the catch-up point is 1 hour (11:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.).
Now, let's add up the time it took for the Rabbit to catch up with the Tortoise (2 hours) and the time it took for the Rabbit to reach Fresh Forest after the catch-up point (1 hour).
2 hours + 1 hour = 3 hours
Therefore, it took the Tortoise 3 hours after being caught up by the Rabbit to reach Fresh Forest.
Since the Tortoise started crawling from Woody Woods at 7:30 a.m., we can add the 3 hours to this time to determine when the Tortoise will reach Fresh Forest.
7:30 a.m. + 3 hours = 10:30 a.m.
Hence, the Tortoise will reach Fresh Forest at 10:30 a.m.
