The question is asking for how many minutes it walks. Since it walks 5 meter per minute and walks 62.5 meters, you have to divide 62.5 by 5 to get how many minutes the tortoise walks. 62.5 divide by 5 is 12.5. in minutes, 0.5 is 30 seconds, therefore the tortoise walked for 12 minutes and 30 seconds or 12 1/2 minutes.

[tex]12.5[/tex] minutes

Relation between speed, distance, and time is as follows:

Distance [tex]=[/tex] Speed [tex]\times[/tex] Time

Distance [tex]=62.5[/tex] meters

Speed [tex]=5[/tex] meters per minute

Therefore,

62.5 [tex]=[/tex] 5 [tex]\times[/tex] Time

Time [tex]=\frac{62.5}{5}[/tex]

        [tex]=12.5[/tex] minutes

A tortoise walks for [tex]\boldsymbol{12.5}[/tex] minutes.
