A horse can gallop at a rate of 30 miles per hour. At this rate, how long will it take the horse to run a race of 1,100 yards?

30 miles means 52800 yards in one hr.
S=d/t
52800=1100/t
t=1100/52800
t=0.0208 hr

The answer would be approximately 36.7 hrs, since 1,100 (yards) divided by 30 (mph) is 36.6666666.
