Question
A whale swims 200 miles in 5 days. Which equation can be used to find how many miles it swims in 16 days? (1 point)
• y = 200 × 16
0 y=200/16
O 200 = 16x
O y= 200/5 * 16
• y = 200 × 16
0 y=200/16
O 200 = 16x
O y= 200/5 * 16

The correct equation would be:
y = (200 miles/5 days) * 16 days
This equation represents the rate at which the whale swims (200 miles/5 days) multiplied by the number of days (16) to find the total number of miles (y) that the whale swims in 16 days.
y = (200 miles/5 days) * 16 days
This equation represents the rate at which the whale swims (200 miles/5 days) multiplied by the number of days (16) to find the total number of miles (y) that the whale swims in 16 days.
