Jonathan observes a marble travel along a horizontal path at a constant rate. The marble travels one sixth of the length of the path in 4 3/4 seconds. At that rate, how many seconds does it take the object to travel the full length?

Answer 1

To find out how many seconds it takes for the marble to travel the full length of the path, we first need to calculate the time it takes for the marble to travel one full length.

Since the marble travels one sixth of the length of the path in 4 3/4 seconds, we can calculate the time it takes for the marble to travel the full length by multiplying the time it takes to travel one sixth of the path by 6.

4 3/4 seconds * 6 = 28 1/2 seconds

Therefore, it takes the marble 28 1/2 seconds to travel the full length of the path.
