What is the speed of a snake that moves 20 m in 5 seconds ?

-round answer to nearest hundredth, or the second decimal place.
(If necessary)

The speed of the snake is 8.95 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The snake travels at a speed of 20 meters in 5 seconds.

We will need to determine the distance it covered in a single second. To do that we divide the distance covered in 5 seconds by 5.

The distance covered in 1 second

So the snake is moving at a distance of 4 meters per second.

Step 2:

To convert the speed of the snake from meters per second to miles per hour, we multiply the speed in meters per second by 2.23694.

So to attain 4 meters per second in miles per hour, we multiply it by 2.23694.

4 meters per second miles per hour.

Rounding this off, we get the speed of the snake as 8.95 miles per hour.
