Question
Animal 1 takes 10 steps every minute. Animal 2 takes 22 steps every 2 minutes. Compare these proportional relationships. Which animal takes more steps per minute?(1 point)
Animal
takes more steps per minute.

Answer 1

To compare the steps per minute of both animals, we need to calculate the steps per minute for each animal.

**Animal 1:**
- Takes 10 steps every minute.
- Steps per minute = 10 steps/minute.

**Animal 2:**
- Takes 22 steps every 2 minutes.
- Steps per minute = 22 steps / 2 minutes = 11 steps/minute.

Now we can compare the two rates:

- Animal 1: 10 steps/minute
- Animal 2: 11 steps/minute

Therefore, **Animal 2** takes more steps per minute.

So the answer is: **Animal 2** takes more steps per minute.
