Question

A speed skater completes a 500 meter race in 40 seconds. A cheetah runs 260 meters in 10 seconds.How do their speeds compare

Answers

  1. Answer:
    25:26
    Step-by-step explanation:
    You mean the ratio?
    Let’s simplify the speed skater first. 500 meter in 40 second to x meter in 1 second. 500/40=12.5 meters per seconds
    Cheetah:260/10=26 meters per seconds
    Let’s make this into a integer
    12.5*2=25
    25:26
