The distance between the two creatures is 7 km

The difference in speed is 7 km/h - 2 km/h = 5 km/h

The distance between them (7 km) will be covered at 5 km/h in:

time = distance/speed

= 7 km / 5 km/h

= 1.4 hours

1 hour = 60 mins

0.4 hr = 0.4 × 60 min = 24 min

→ 1.4 hr = 1 hr 24 min.

To calculate the rabbit's average rate, we need to know the total distance of the race and the time it took for the rabbit to finish it while awake. The total time the rabbit took for the race is not provided in the question. Without that information, we cannot accurately determine the rabbit's average rate.
