How long would it take 100 storks to catch 100 frogs when 5 storks need 5 minutes to catch 5 frogs?

5 minutes


When you know it takes five cats five minutes to catch five mice how long will it take for 100 cats to catch 100 mice?

If it takes 5 cats 5 minutes to catch 5 mice, then it would also take 100 cats 5 minutes to catch 100 mice. Each cat catches one mouse in one minute, so the time it takes depends on the number of cats, not the number of mice.


How long would it take 100 storks to catch 100 frogs when five storks need five minutes to catch five frogs?

If five storks catch five frogs in five minutes, then each stork catches one frog in that time. Therefore, 100 storks would also catch 100 frogs in the same five minutes, since they can all work simultaneously. Thus, it would take 100 storks five minutes to catch 100 frogs.


If five swatbu can catch exactly five spies in five minutes how many swatbu would it take to catch exactly one hundred spies in one hundred minutes?

Since 1 swatbu can catch one spy every 5 minutes, each one could catch 20 spies in 100 minutes. The answer is 5.


If 29 frogs are required to catch 29 flies in 29 minutes then how many frogs are required to catch 87 flies in 87 minutes?

If 29 frogs can catch 29 flies in 29 minutes, it means each frog catches one fly in 29 minutes. Therefore, to catch 87 flies in 87 minutes, you would still need 29 frogs.

If 5 cats catch 5 rats in 5 minutes how many cats will it take to catch 100 rats in 100 minutes?

If 5 cats catch 5 rats in 5 minutes, that means each cat catches one rat in 5 minutes. So, to catch 100 rats in 100 minutes, you'd need 100 cats. But let's be real, if you have 100 cats running around trying to catch rats, you probably have bigger problems to deal with.


Four cats catch 4 mice 4 minutes. How many cats will it take to catch 10 mice in 10 minutes?

It'll take 4 because if 4 cats catch 4 mice in 4 minutes, it means it takes 1 minute for one cat to catch 1 mouse. So if 10 cats were the answer, the question would be, how many cats will it take to catch 10 mice in four minutes. This question is obvious...


How many minutes are three quarters of an hour?

A fourth of an hour is 60/4=15 minutes, so three quarters of an hour would be 15x3= 45 minutes.


How may cats does it take to catch 100 mice in 100 minutes?

it's basically impossible because you know that it takes 1 cat to catch 1 mouse, so that means it takes 100 cats to catch 100 mice. But the question you have doesn't tell me how many minutes it takes for 1 cat to catch 1 mouse. e.g say it took 5 minutes for 1 cat to catch 1 mouse you times 5 by 100 and you get 500 so it would take 500 minutes for 100 cats to catch 100 mice. but your question doesn't have the time for how long it would take for 1 cat to catch 1 mouse. so therefore your question can't be answered.


If three cats kill three rats in three minutes then how many minutes will 100 cats take to kill 100 rats?

It would still take 3 minutes according to the setup of the question, assuming there are enough rats to make this work. It takes 1 cat 3 minutes to find a rat, and 3 minutes for 3 cats to each find a rat. So 100 cats would only take 3 minutes to find 100 rats. Time is irrelevant since the only factors changing are the cats and the rats. However, this question assumes too many things that would likely not happen. The question assumes an even density of rats, that the cat's are equally able to catch rats, and that there are enough rats.
