A mole can dig a 60 m long tunnel in 12 hours. How many meters of tunnel can a mole

A mole can dig a 60 m long tunnel in 12 hours. How many meters of tunnel can a mole span in 5 hours if it moves the same distance every hour?

1) Let’s determine how long the tunnel was dug by the mole in 1 hour, if we know that it dug 60 meters in 12 hours.

60/12 = 5 meters.

2) Let us determine how long the tunnel will be dug by the mole in 5 hours, if we learned that in an hour it moved 5 meters.

5 * 5 = 25 meters.

Answer: in 5 hours the mole will dig a tunnel 25 meters long.
