A rhino can run 28 miles per hour. What is that speed in feet per second, to the nearest whole number?

A rhino runs at a speed of about 28 miles per hour.

We need to determine the speed in feet per second.

Converting miles to feet:

The miles can be converted to feet by multiplying 5280 with 28 miles per hour.

Thus, we have;

28 x 5280 = 14784028 × 5280 = 147840

Thus, the speed of the rhino in feet per hour is 147840

Converting hours to seconds:

The hours can be converted into seconds by dividing 147840 by 3600 (Because an hour has 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour)

Thus, we get;

Speed=\frac{147840}{3600}Speed=

3600

147840

Speed = 41.066667Speed=41.066667

Rounding off to the nearest whole number, we get;

Speed = 41

Therefore, the speed of the rhino is 41 feet per second.
