A white-tailed deer can sprint at speeds up to 30 miles per hour. American bison can run at speeds up to 3,520 feet per minute. Which animanl is faster and by how many miles per hour? There are 5,280 feet in one mile

Answer 1

the bison runs 3520 feet per minute

convert that to miles per hour

3520/5280 = 2/3 of a mile per minute

2/3 x 60 = 40 miles per hour

the bison runs 10 miles per hour faster
