Answer 1

Answer:

He or she has 232,840,800 beats in five minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by proportions.

In this question:

A year has 365 days.

Each day has 24 hours.

Each hour has 60 minutes.

Minutes in five years:

5*365*24*60 = 2,628,000 minutes.

How many beats in five minutes?

88.6 beats/min, 2,628,000 minutes. So the number of bears is:

88.6*2628000 = 232,840,800

He or she has 232,840,800 beats in five minutes.
