Answer:

Explanation:

Rufu the Dog runs 1/2 of a mile in 1 minute. We want to convert this to miles per hour. Because there are 60 minutes in one hour, we will multiply by this conversion factor.


(0.5 miles)/(1 minute) (60 minutes)/(1 hour)

0.5 x 60 = 30

Therefore, Rufu the Dog runs at an average speed of 30 miles per hour.
