He covered 5 yards in 9 hops.
So you would do 5 divided by 9, which is 0.555555555555556, rounded, it would be about 0.6 yards. Hope this helps.

Hello!

To calculate how many yards the grasshopper traveled on each hop, we must divide the number of yards (5) by the number of hops (9):

5 ÷ 9 = 0.5556 (Repeating decimal)

Answer:

The grasshopper traveled about 0.6 yards on each hop.
