The slowest animal ever discovered is a crab found in the red sea that travels at an average speed of 5 km/ year . how long will it take this crab to crawl 1 meter

8.76 hours

Explanation: The speed of the crab is s = 5km/year

And we want to know how long will take the crab to crawl 1 meter.

First, the speed equation is written in kilometers, and the distance is in metters, so we need to convert the equations:

We know that 1km = 1000m

So the speed equation can be s = 5km/year = 5*1000m/year = 5000m/y

So the crawl moves 5000 meters in one year.

the time that the crab needs to crawl 5 meters is:

t = (5 m)/(5000m/year) = (1/1000)years

now, a year has 365 days:

t = (365/1000) days

each day has 24 hours:

t = ((365*24)/1000) = 8.76 hours

The crab needs 8.76 hours to crawl 5 meters

it about 600 mph from what i calculated
