a snail going full speed was taking 1/8 of a minute to move 1/7 of a centimeter. at this rate, how long would it take the snail to travel a centimeter ?

Respuesta :

it will take 7/8 of a minute because you just multiply 1/8 by 7
(1/7)cm / (1/8)min = (0.14)cm / (0.25)min = 1.1 cm/min

(1cm) / (1.1cm/min) = 0.9 min

So it conclusion, the answer is:

It takes the snail 0.9 minutes to travel 1 centimeter.
