A dog makes 4 jumps in the time it takes a cat to make 5 jumps, but the dog's 3 jumps are equal to the cat's 4 jumps. What is the speed ratio of the cat and the dog?
Answers 2
Answer:
15/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Jumps of cat = 5
Jumps of dog = 4
Therefore, 5 jumps of cat = 4 jumps of dog
Similarly, 4 jumps of cat = 3 jumps of dog
1 jump of cat = 3/4 jumps of dog
Required ratio: 5 * (Cat Jump) = 4 * (Dog Jump)
5 * 3/4 = 4 * Dog jump
15/16 = Dog Jump
Ratio of cat and dog = 15:16

Answer:
3dog = 4 cat; Or, dog/cat = 4/3; Let cat's 1 leap = 3 meter and dogs 1 leap = 4 meter. Then, ratio of speed of cat and dog = 3*5/4*4 = 15:16.
