Question

A cheetah typically runs 15 miles in 1/5 hours. How fast does a cheetah runs in miles/hour

Answer 1

75 miles/hour

Explanation:

Cheetahs run 15 miles in 1/5 hours. To get it to be a full hour, you multiply 1/5 by 5. You will also have to multiply 15 by 5 to get the number of miles per hour, and you get 75. Cheetahs can run 75 miles in 1 hour.

Answer 2

75 miles per hour

Explanation:

ok wooo first question answered so don't trust me too much

so basically we need to find how many miles he runs in one hour and we have 1/5

so multiply 15 by 5

75

boom

I don't know if your teacher wants you to do it in a different way so here's a little explanation on how teachers normally want you to do it

you take 1=x and 1/5=15 and stack then then cross multiply

1/5 15

1 x
