An ant walks an average of 1000 meters in 30 minutes. A beetle walks 10% less distance at the same time on the average. Assuming the beetle walks at her regular rate, what is its speed in km/h?
Choose the correct answer.
A) 1.8  B) 1.6  C) 2.775 .  D) 1.9  E) 3.5 .

Rationale: the ant walks an average of 1000 meters in 30 minutes 1000 meters in 1 / 2 hours the beetle walks 10 % less distance = 1000 - 10 = 900 meters in 30 minutes 0.900 km in 30 / 60 = 1 / 2 hours speed = 0.900 * 2 = 1.8 km / h i guess option a should be 1.8
Answer: A
