Question

Which speed is the fastest?

A.) 20 yards in 1.5 hours
B.) 3 2/3 yards in 15 minutes
C.) 18 feet in 20 minutes

Explain how you got your answer.

Answer 1

3 2/3 yards in 15 minutes

Explanation:

First ting to do is convert all of the units to where all are the same.

20 yards in 90 minutes

3 2/3 yards in 15 minutes

6 yards in 20 minutes

To find the speed per yard take the distance over time.

20 yards in 90 minutes = 0.22 yards per minute

3 2/3 yards in 15 minutes = 0.244 yards per minute

6 yards in 20 minutes = 0.3 yards per minute

Hope this helps!
