Question

A Cheetah running at 61 miles per hour is chasing an American Antelope that is running

at a rate of 1583 meters per minute.
Which animal is running at a faster rate?

Answer 1

Cheetah

Explanation:

American Antelope's speed = 94980 meters per hour

= 59 miles per hour

The Cheetah is faster than the American Antelope

Answer 2

Explanation:

The American Antelope is going at a rate of 1583 meters / minute

1583 m [ 1 km / 1000 m ] = 1.583 km / minutes

In an hour, the Antelope will go 1.583 km / minute * 60 min / hour

1.583 * 60 = 94.98 km / hour

The cheetah is going 61 miles / hour * 1.6 km / mile = 97.6 km/hour

The Cheetah is not going to go hungry tonight.
