Question

A mule dear can 1/4 of a mile in 25 seconds. At this rate, what expression can be used to determine how fast a mule deer runs in miles per hour

Answer 1

We have to find how many seconds are in one hour.
There are 60 seconds in one minute, with 60 minutes in every hour.
60×60=3600
Now, see how many 25 seconds are in 3600 seconds.
3600÷25= 144
Now, we can multiply 144 by 14 or .25 since we are trying to find per hour.
144×.25= 36
36h
H being the hours you're trying to find. It runs 36 miles per hour.
