To find how many times the hummingbird will flap its wings in 15 seconds, we need to convert the given rate of 5,000 times per minute to times per second.
There are 60 seconds in a minute, so the hummingbird flaps its wings 5,000 / 60 = 83.33 times per second.
Therefore, in 15 seconds, the hummingbird will flap its wings 83.33 * 15 = 1,249.95 times.
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the hummingbird will flap its wings approximately 1,250 times.
