A scientist studying earth's rotation determines that a specific location on earth's equator travels about 40,000 kilometers in
one day. What is the approximate speed of the location, in miles per hour, due to earth's rotation

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Discussion
The first thing you have to do is convert km to miles
Formula
1 mile = 1.6 km
x mile = 40000 km Cross Multiply
Solution
1.6*x = 1 * 40000 Divide by 1.6
x = 40000/1.6
x = 25000 miles
Answer Part 1
The distance covered is 25000 miles
Discussion Part 2
That's the distance covered in a day. Now we need to convert that to speed. The time (in hours) for 1 day is 24 hours.
Givens
d = 25000 miles
t = 24 hours
s = ?
Solution
s = d/t
s = 25000 / 24
s = <u>1041.66 </u> miles per hour
Answer: 1041.66 is what is to be entered as your answer

7 7/8 can be estimated to 8
2 2/11 can be estimated to 2
8 + 2 = 10
7 7/8 = 56+7/8 = 63/8
2 2/11 = 22+2/11 = 24/11
63/8 + 24/11 = 693+192/88 = 10.06
So do you see how similar 10 and 10.06 are to each other? :)
