A mule deer can run 1/4 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

Respuesta :

Ok so this might be a bit confusing but I hope u understand it. Because the problem is in seconds, I tried to stick to seconds. In an hour there are 60 minutes and in those 60 minutes there are 3,600 seconds. Now in 25 seconds the mule deer can run 1/4 mile. So think for a second how many seconds it would take for it run a full mile. If u do the math then u would get 25*4 which is 100 seconds to run a full mile. Going back to our 3,600 seconds, all u have to do is divide it by 100 to get the miles. So 3,600/100 is 36. The mile deer runs 36 miles in an hour. I hope this was of help to u
