1 answer

To find out how fast Danni will be able to complete a race that is 600 meters, we can use a proportional relationship.

The given information states that Danni drove 400 meters in 5 seconds.

Let's set up the proportion:

400 meters / 5 seconds = 600 meters / x seconds

Using cross-multiplication, we get:

400 * x = 5 * 600

400x = 3000

Dividing both sides of the equation by 400, we get:

x = 3000 / 400

x = 7.5 seconds

Therefore, Danni will be able to complete a race that is 600 meters in 7.5 seconds.
