Question

A mule deer can run one over four of a mile in 25 seconds. At this rate, which expression can be used to determine how fast a mule deer runs in miles per hour?
twenty-five seconds over one-fourth mile = 36 miles per hour
one-fourth mile over twenty-five seconds = 36 miles per hour
one-fourth mile over twenty-five seconds = 100 miles per hour
twenty-five seconds over one-fourth mile = 100 miles per hour

Answer 1

Speed (v) = distance (d) / time (t)
so either the second or third. if this is realistic deer can't run 100 miles per hour so is say the second initially but to check what is .25miles/25s convert to hours. (3600 seconds in an hour) so .25*3600=900 then 900miles/25hour= 36miles/ hour.
