Answer:

75 miles

Explanation:

If the bird flies for 90 minutes at 50 mph (miles per hour), we need to calculate how many hours 90 minutes is.

One hour is 60 minutes. Our equation will be: 90/60 = 1.5

This mean the bird flies 1.5 hours at 50 mph. To find the distance, we multiply 1.5 by 50.

1.5 × 50 = 75

The bird has flown 75 miles.
