Let's represent the number of miles the whale swims in 16 days as "x."
We can set up a proportion to find the value of "x" by comparing the number of miles the whale swims in 5 days to the number of miles it swims in 16 days.
5 days --> 200 miles
16 days --> x miles
The equation is:
5/200 = 16/x
A whale swims 200miles in 5 days identyfly which equation could be used to find how many miles it swims in 16 days
