A turtle can walk 1/12 of a kilometer in an hour. The turtle is 1/5 of a kilometer away from a pond. At this speed, how long will it take the turtle to reach the pond? Khan academy
+2862 Since if the turtle reaches the pond the distance away is 0, we can make the equation \(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{12}x=0\)
Solving we get 2.4 hours, or 144 minutes
+36916 distance/rate = time
1/5 km / 1/12 km/hr = 12/5 hr = 2 hr 24 min
