Study Notes

Calculating Walking Speed

  • Herman walks 2 miles in 1 hour.
  • Sydney walks 6 miles in 1 hour.
  • To compare their speeds, we need to calculate their speed in miles per minute.

Herman's Speed

  • Herman's speed is 2 miles per hour.
  • To convert this to miles per minute, we divide by 60 minutes: 2 miles / 60 minutes = 1/30 miles per minute.

Sydney's Speed

  • Sydney's speed is 6 miles per hour.
  • To convert this to miles per minute, we divide by 60 minutes: 6 miles / 60 minutes = 1/10 miles per minute.

Comparing Speeds

  • Sydney's speed (1/10 miles per minute) is greater than Herman's speed (1/30 miles per minute).
  • Therefore, Sydney walks faster.
