To answer this we will divide the amount of feet by the amount of seconds. The answer will be the amount of feet the ball travels per second. Lets do it:-

360 / 4 = 90
90 ft per sec.

CHECK OUR WORK:-

90 * 4 = 360
We were RIGHT!!

So, the ball travels 90 feet per sec.

Hope I helped ya!! xD

Answer:

90 feet

Explanation:

We need to divide the number of feet by the number of seconds:

360 ÷ 4 = ?

Think: 360 is 36 tens.

Use the basic fact 36 ÷ 4 = 9.

So, 36 tens ÷ 4 = 9 tens, or 90 feet.
