Question

the great snipe can fly up to 4,000 miles (mi) without stopping for food or water at a speed of 60 miles per hour (mph). what is the maximum number of days, to the nearest tenth, that the great snipe can fly without stopping?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate flight hours

$4000\div60=\frac{200}{3}$ hours

Step2: Convert hours to days

$\frac{200}{3}\div24=\frac{200}{3\times24}=\frac{25}{9}\approx2.8$ days

Answer:

$2.8$
