A pond is 36 m long. A duck swims 4 length of the pond each day. How far does the duck swim in 4 weeks
Find out how many meters a day by dividing 36/4=9 then how many meters a week will by multiplied by 7 (7×9)=63 then multiple by 4 weeks (63×4)252
I want to know which answers are correct and which ones are not!
I'm not sure 😕
9 meter
To find out how far the duck swims in 4 weeks, we need to determine how far it swims in one day and then multiply that distance by the number of days in 4 weeks.
Given that the pond is 36 m long and the duck swims 4 lengths of the pond each day, we can calculate the distance the duck covers in one day.
Distance covered by the duck in one day = Length of the pond × Number of lengths the duck swims
= 36 m × 4 lengths
= 144 m
Now we need to calculate the number of days in 4 weeks.
Number of days in 4 weeks = Number of weeks × Number of days in a week
= 4 weeks × 7 days/week
= 28 days
Finally, to determine the total distance the duck swims in 4 weeks, we multiply the distance it covers in one day by the number of days in 4 weeks.
Total distance covered by the duck in 4 weeks = Distance covered in one day × Number of days in 4 weeks
= 144 m × 28 days
= 4032 m
Therefore, the duck swims a total distance of 4032 meters in 4 weeks.
