Question

Some species of hummingbirds appear to hover in mid-air by flapping their tiny wings 80 times per second. How many times per minute do hummingbirds flap their wings?

Answer 1

So the way to answer this question is to convert minute to seconds
We know that a minute has 60 seconds
The problem states that the hummingbird flaps its wings 80 times per second
So 80 times per second x 60 seconds = 4800 times would be the final answer.
