Question

Penny walked 50 yards in 30 seconds. At this pace, how many miles would she walk

in one hour? Show all calculations to get full credit.
CONVERSIONS:
1 yard = 3 feet
5,280 feet = 1 mile
1 hour = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds​

Answer 1

30 seconds times 2 = 1 minute (50x2=100), 1minute times 60= 1 hour (100x60=6000) then u have the total time so then you turn the 6,000 yards into miles so you would divide 6000/5280=1.13636364 so Penny would walk 1.1364 miles an hour

Answer 2

30 seconds x 200= 1 hour
50 yards x 200 = 10,000
10,000 divided by 3 = 3,333.3 feet
3,333.3 feet divided by 5,280 = 0.63 mile
Estimation: Penney will walk one mile and a quarter of another mile in one hour.
