A Galapagos penguin can walk mile 1/3 in an hour. How many hours would it take the penguin to walk 3/4 mile?A. 3/4 x 1/3 = 1/4 hourB. 3/4➗1/3 = 9/4 hoursC. 3/4 + 1/3 = 13/12 hoursD. 1/3➗3/4 = 4/9 hour

Respuesta :

3/4 ÷ 1/3 =9/4 hours

= 3/4 x 3 = 9/4 hours

EXPLANATION

Let x be the number of hours it would take the penguin to walk 3/4 mile.

1/3 mile = 1 hour

3/4 mile = x

Cross-multiply

1/3 x = 3/4

Divide both-side by 1/3

x = 3/4 ÷ 1/3

= 3/4 x 3 = 9/4 hours
