Use reasoning to lead to the answer of the following question:
Erik's dog can run 24 miles per hour. It is chasing a rabbit that can run 15 miles per hour. The rabbit has a head start of .6 miles. How many minutes does it take for the dog to catch up to the rabbit?

4
The dog runs.

4 miles per minute because 24 / 60 =.

4.

The rabbit runs.

25 miles per minute because 15 / 60 =.

25.

We know that.

4(Number of Minutes) =.

25(Number of Minutes) +.

6.

Therefore.

15(Number of Minutes) =.

6.

Therefore (Number of Minutes) = 4.

.

Thus, the answer is 4
