Question

Luna drove a tractor across her cornfield. The field was 480 meters across, and she drove at a constant velocity of 20 meters per minute across the field. How long did it take for Luna to drive one-quarter of the distance across the field? Write your answer as a whole number.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

480 meters is the whole field.

One quarter of it is equal to 480 ÷ 4 = 120.

She is traveling 20 meters per minute.

120 ÷ 20 = 6

It takes her six minutes.
