Question

A person's heart beats 200 times in 3 minutes. How many times will it beat in an hour (remember...60 minutes in an hour) ?​

Answer 1

Answer:  4000 beats per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

200 beats     X   60 minutes    

3 minutes               1 hour

The term 'minutes' cancel out therefore you are left with beats per hour

200 x 60       =    12000    =  4000 beats per hour

      3                         3

Answer 2

200 times / 3 minutes = x times / 60 minutes

3x = 12000

x = 4000 times in an hour

A person's heart will beat 4000 times in an hour.

Hope this helps!! :)
