Given:
An athlete who makes
laps in 3 mins 45 seconds on a 400m field.
To find:
The speed of the athlete in m/s.
Solution:
We know that,
Distance covered in 1 lap = 400 m
Distance covered in
laps =
m
=
m
=
m
We know that,
1 minute = 60 seconds
3 minutes = 180 seconds
3 minutes 45 second = 180 + 45 seconds
= 225 second
The speed of the athlete is:



Therefore, the speed of the athlete is about 8.44 m/s.
If you would like to know the number of square feet of grass seeds that the lawn company can spread per hour, you can calculate this using the following steps:
7500 square feet ... 2 1/2 hours = 5/2 hours
x square feet = ? ... 1 hour
7500 * 1 = 5/2 * x
7500 = 5/2 * x /*2/5
x = 7500 * 2 / 5
x = 3000 square feet
The correct result would be 3000 square feet.
