Answer:

Its the ant. :)

Step-by-step explanation: I did the quiz.

The correct option is D.

The ANT traveled at a rate of 1.5 meters per minute .

Step-by-step :

  • Let's create equivalent ratios to see which animal crawled 1.5, point, 5 meters in 1 minute.
  • A ratio where one of the terms is 1 is called a unit rate.
  • The turtle crawled 6 meters in 5 minutes, which is a ratio of 6:5, he turtle crawled 1.21.21, point, 2 meters in 111 minute, not 1.51.51, point, 5 meters.
  • The snail crawled 4 meters in 8 minutes, which is a ratio of 4:8 The snail crawled 0.5, point, 5 meter in 1 minute, not 1.5 meters.  
  • The caterpillar crawled 7 meters in 7 minutes, which is a ratio of 7:7. The caterpillar crawled 1 meter in 1 minute, not 1.5 meters.
  • The ant crawled 1.5, in 1 minute.  The ant traveled at a rate of 1.5 meters per minute.

How do you identify equivalent ratios?

  • Two ratios that have the same value are called equivalent ratios.
  • To find an equivalent ratio, multiply or divide both quantities by the same number.
  • It is the same process as finding equivalent fractions.
