A raindrop fallsat a rate of 4/50mile in 1/20hour. At this rate, how far will the raindroptravelin 1 hour?(60 minutes)

Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/20 hour = 5 minutes

(We can now call 1/20 of an hour 5 minutes)

If it falls 4/50 of a mile in 5 minutes (1/20 of an hour),

we do 4/50 * 12 because there are 12 5-minute intervals in an hour/

4/50 * 12 = 48/50 = 24/25 of a mile

Therefore, the raindrop will travel 24/25 of a mile in an hour.
