1.	The speed of a Garden-Snail is 50meters per hour and that of the Cheetah is 120ters per hour. Find the ratio of the speeds.
Answer» Speed of snail = 50 meter per hr or 0.05 km per hr Speed of cheetah = 120 km per hr Time = 1 hr or 60 min To find ratio between the speed of the cheetah and snail : Cheetah : snail 120 : 0.05 2400 : 1 So for every 2400 meter covered by the cheetah the snail would have covered only 1 meter

The speed of a Garden-Snail is 50meters per hour and that of the Cheetah is 120ters per hour. Find the ratio of the speeds.

Answer»

Speed of snail = 50 meter per hr or 0.05 km per hr

Speed of cheetah = 120 km per hr

Time = 1 hr or 60 min

To find ratio between the speed of the cheetah and snail :

Cheetah : snail

120 : 0.05

2400 : 1

So for every 2400 meter covered by the cheetah the snail would have covered only 1 meter
