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 \(\boxed{24.8 \, \mathrm{s}}\).
