The aquarium owns two research boats that will be docked next to the new building. The Delfino recently took 5 hours to cover 57.5 miles of shoreline. On its last research voyage, the Balina surveyed 54 miles in 4.5 hours. Which boat is faster?

The Delfino can travel at a rate of ______________ miles per hour (mph).

The Balina can travel at a rate of ______________ miles per hour (mph).

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Balina is faster than the Delfino.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the amount of miles covered by the amount of hours it took for each one.

For the Delfino:

57.5 / 5 = 11.5

For the Balina:

54 / 4.5 = 12
