Calculate Jellyfish Speed: To find out which animal is faster, we need to calculate the speed of each animal in miles per hour. Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to travel that distance. Let's start with the jellyfish's speed.
Calculate Walrus Speed: The jellyfish travels 53 mile in 61 hour. To find the speed, we divide the distance by the time:Speed of jellyfish = 6153To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:Speed of jellyfish = 53×16
Compare Speeds: Now, we perform the multiplication:Speed of jellyfish = 5×13×6Speed of jellyfish = 518Speed of jellyfish = 3.6 miles per hour
Compare Speeds: Now, we perform the multiplication:Speed of jellyfish = 5×13×6Speed of jellyfish = 518Speed of jellyfish = 3.6 miles per hourNext, we calculate the walrus' speed. The walrus travels 65 mile in 103 hour. Again, we divide the distance by the time:Speed of walrus = 10365We multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:Speed of walrus = 65×310
Compare Speeds: Now, we perform the multiplication:Speed of jellyfish = 5×13×6Speed of jellyfish = 518Speed of jellyfish = 3.6 miles per hourNext, we calculate the walrus' speed. The walrus travels 65 mile in 103 hour. Again, we divide the distance by the time:Speed of walrus = 10365We multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:Speed of walrus = 65×310Now, we perform the multiplication:Speed of walrus = 6×35×10Speed of walrus = 1850Speed of walrus = 2.777... miles per hour
Compare Speeds: Now, we perform the multiplication:Speed of jellyfish = 5×13×6Speed of jellyfish = 518Speed of jellyfish = 3.6 miles per hourNext, we calculate the walrus' speed. The walrus travels 65 mile in 103 hour. Again, we divide the distance by the time:Speed of walrus = 10365We multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:Speed of walrus = 65×310Now, we perform the multiplication:Speed of walrus = 6×35×10Speed of walrus = 1850Speed of walrus = 2.777... miles per hourTo compare the speeds, we see that the jellyfish's speed is 3.6 miles per hour and the walrus' speed is approximately 2.78 miles per hour when rounded to the nearest hundredth. Therefore, the jellyfish is faster than the walrus.
