A falcon flew 70 miles in 3 hours. What was the speed of the falcon? speed = 1 mile = 1609 meters

Find the speed per hour by dividing total distance by total time:

70 miles / 3 hours  = 23 1/3 miles per hour.

1 mile = 1609 meters:

multiply miles by 1609:

23 1/3 x 1609 = 37,543 1/3 meters per hour.

37,543.33 meters per hour, or 23.33 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

70 miles per 3 hours would be the same thing as 70 * 1,609 per 3 hours. 70 * 1,609 = 112,630 meters per hours. 112,630 / 3 = 37543.333333333333.

So, the speed of the falcon is 37,543.33 meters per hour, or 70 / 3 = 23.33 miles per hour.

Hope this helps!

good luck!

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide
