4th grade math the blue shark can swim at a speed of 40 miles per hour. If the shark swam at this speed for 15 min. How far would it swim?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "15 minutes is 1/4 of an hour
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "In 1/4 of an hour the shark could swim (1/4)*40 mph = 10 miles
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "How long would it take the shark to travel 90 miles?
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "distance divided by rate = time
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "time to travel 90 miles at 40 mph = 90/40 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 hrs = 2 hrs and 15 min
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
