Part​ A: How many flowers does the bird visit in an​ hour? Round your answer to the nearest whole flower.
Part​ B: How many flowers does the bird visit in a​ year?

Answer 1

PART A: The bird visits about 49 flowers each hour.
1,170 (total flowers per day) divided by 24 (the hours in a day) equals about 49.
