390 ÷ 6 = 65

440 ÷ 10 = 44

Answer:

The cow has a greater heart rate than the horse.

Explanation:

The question demand we calculate the heart beat of each animal in relation to time . The number of heart beat per unit time can be computed as follows .

The horse heart rate is 440 heart beat in 10 minutes . The heart rate can be simplified as

Rate = 440/10

Rate = 44 heart beat per minute

The cow heart rate can be simplified as

Rate = 390/6

Rate = 65 heart beat per minute

From the Heart rate calculated above the cow has a higher heart rate than the horse.
