Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Given Values
We are given the following values:
Speed of the baby, \( v = 0.150 \, \mathrm{m/s} \)
Length of the hallway, \( d = 3.72 \, \mathrm{m} \)
Step 2: Use the Formula for Time
The formula to calculate time when speed and distance are known is:
\[
t = \frac{d}{v}
\]
where:
\( t \) is the time,
\( d \) is the distance,
\( v \) is the speed.
Step 3: Substitute the Given Values into the Formula
Substitute the given values into the formula:
\[
t = \frac{3.72 \, \mathrm{m}}{0.150 \, \mathrm{m/s}}
\]
Step 4: Calculate the Time
Perform the division to find the time:
\[
t = 24.8 \, \mathrm{s}
\]
Final Answer
The time it takes for the baby to crawl down the hallway is \(\boxed{24.8 \, \mathrm{s}}\).
