Cheetahs are the fastest animals on four legs. They are capable of running at two different speeds. In a sprint, they can run 74 1/2 mph. They can run 57 3/4 mph while they hunt.

If the cheetah sprints for 1/8 of an hour and hunts for 3/4 of an hour, what is the average speed?

sprints: 1/8 of 74 1/2 = 74.5 divided by 8=9.3125

Hunts: 3/4 of 57 3/4= 57.75 divided by .75=77

9.3125 + 77=86.3125 86.3125 divided by 2= 43.156 mph average speed
