It will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> (time) to travel 1,171.1 miles (distance) at 0.013 meters per second (speed).
<h3>How are the hours determined?</h3>
The hours that it will take the snail to travel the distance is determined by first converting the miles into meters at 1 mile = 1,609.34 meters.
The speed per second is also converted into speed her hour.
The conversions use the mathematical operations of division and multiplication.
Time = distance/speed.
<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>
Total distance in miles = 1,171.1 miles
Total distance in meters = 1,884,698.07 meters (1,171.1 x 1609.34)
Speed = 0.013 meters per second
Speed in hours = 46.8 meters per hour (0.013 x 60 x 60)
The number of hours to cover the distance = Total Distance/Speed
= <u>40,271.33 hours </u>(1,884,698.07/46.8)
Thus, it will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> to cover a distance of 1,171.1 miles at a speed of 0.013 meters per second.
