Question

A kayak travels in a lake at an average speed of 35 m/min. If the perimeter of the lake was 8400 m how many hours does it take for the kayak to travel around the whole lake

Answer 1

Time (in hours) = Distance / Speed

Distance = Perimeter of the lake = 8400 meters

Speed = 35 m/min

First, you need to convert the speed from meters per minute to meters per hour:

35 m/min * (60 min/hour) = 2100 m/hour

Now you can calculate the time it takes:

Time (in hours) = 8400 meters / 2100 m/hour = 4 hours
