Question

Sea turtles are strong swimming. A sea turtle cannot retract its head under its shell like a land turtle. If a sea turtles traveled 2.8miles at top speed in 2 hours, how far did it travel in one hour?

Answer 1

Answer: 1.4 miles in one hour

2.8 miles in two hours. Divide 2.8 by 2 (2 hours) and you will get 1.8 because half of 2.8 in 2 hours is 1.4 in one hour. If you add 1.4 and one hour you will get 2.8 and 2 hours.
