Answer 2

Speed = 10.736 inches per minute .

Explanation:

Given : A dwarf sea horse swims at a rate of 53.68 feet per hour.

To find : Convert this speed to inches per minute.

Solution : We have given

Dwarf can swim in 1 hour = 53 .68 feet .

1 feet = 12 inches .

53 .68 feet = 12 * 53 .68 = 644.16.

53 .68 feet = 644 .16 inches .

1 hour = 60 minute .

Speed =
`(Distance)/(Time)`.

Speed =
`(644.16)/(60)`.

Speed = 10.736 inches per minute .

Therefore, Speed = 10.736 inches per minute .
