Answer:
It travel 23.4 km in 9 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
A sea turtle can swim 13 km in 5 hours at this rate speed .
To find :-
How far can it travel in 9 hours.
Solution :-
Sea turtle swim 13 km in 5 hours Then find the how far it can travel in 9 hours.
Let us assume that In 9 hours turtle swim x km.
Now, We solve by using ratio for x.
In 5 hours it swim = 13 km
And, In 9 hours it swim = x km
Calculate for x
5 hours = 13 km
9 hours = x km
Use cross multiplication method , we get
5 × x = 9 × 13
5x = 117
Divide both side by 5
5x / 5 = 117 / 5
x = 23.4
Hence, It can travel 23.4 km in 9 hours.
