Question

While free diving in the ocean Samantha once set a record by diving 525 feet in 3 1/2 minutes how many feet per minute did she dive?

Answer 1

To find how many feet per minute she dove, divide the total number of feet by the total time in minutes.

Total number of feet = 525 feet

Total time in minutes = 3 1/2 minutes = 3.5 minutes

=> feet per minute = 525 feet / 3.5 minute = 150 feet per minute

Answer: 150 feet / minute
