Question

A sea turtle swims at a speed of 27 kilometers per hour. A girl swims 14 decimeters per second.

Answer 1

366 m/min First, convert the turtles speed to meters per minute. 27 km/h * 1000 m/km = 27000 m/h / 60 min/h = 450 m/min Now convert the girls speed to meters per minute. 14 dm/s / 10 dm/m * 60 s/min = 84 m/min Now subtract the girl's speed from the turtle's speed. 450 m/min = 84 m/min = 366 m/min

Answer 2

~~~~~~~~~~The answer is 366 m/min~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ First, convert the turtles speed to meters per minute. 27 km/h * 1000 m/km = 27000 m/h / 60 min/h = 450 m/min Now convert the girls speed to meters per minute. 14 dm/s / 10 dm/m * 60 s/min = 84 m/min Now subtract the girl's speed from the turtle's speed. 450 m/min = 84 m/min = 366 m/min
