Question

the average sneeze can travel 3/100 miles in 3 seconds at this rate, how far can it travel in one minute?

Answer 1

Given:

Average sneeze can travel =

$\frac{3}{100}\text{miles in 3 seconds}$

This means it can travel 0.03 miles in 3 seconds

$3\text{ seconds = }\frac{3}{60}\min utes$

Let's find the rate per minute.

Since 60 seconds make 1 minute, the rate will be:

$\frac{3}{100}\times\frac{60}{3}=\frac{180}{300}=\frac{3}{5}=0.6\text{ mile per minute}$

Therefore, sneeze can travel 0.6 mile in one minute.

ANSWER:

0.6 MILE per minute
