Question

During migration, a hummingbird can fly 210 miles in 7 hours, and a goose can fly 165 miles in 3 hours. Which bird flies at a faster rate

Answer 1

Answer:

The goose can fly at a faster rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many miles per hour each bird is flying you would take the total miles and divide them by the hours it took them to fly.  For the hummingbird you would take 210 miles and divide it by 7, so 210/7 = 30mph.  For the goose you would take 165 miles and divide it by 3, so 165/3 = 55mph.  The humming bird can fly 30 miles in an hour and the goose can fly 55 miles in an hour, therefore the goose flies at a faster rate.
