To calculate how much money you can make if you participate in a race that gives out $20,000 for a 1-hour event and your finish time is 1 minute and 50 seconds, we first need to clarify how many times you can complete the race in that hour.
1. **Convert the race finish time to hours**:
1 minute and 50 seconds = 1 + (50/60) minutes = 1 + 0.8333 minutes = 1.8333 minutes.
To convert that to hours, divide by 60:
\( \text{Finish time in hours} = \frac{1.8333}{60} \approx 0.03056 \text{ hours} \).
2. **Calculate the number of races you can complete in 1 hour**:
\( \text{Number of races} = \frac{1 \text{ hour}}{0.03056 \text{ hours}} \approx 32.76 \).
Since you can't run a fraction of a race, you can complete approximately 32 full races in one hour.
3. **Calculate the total earnings**:
If you earn $20,000 per race:
\( \text{Total money earned} = 32 \text{ races} \times 20,000 = 640,000 \).
So, if you run races continuously for 1 hour, earning $20,000 for each race, you would make approximately **$640,000**.
