A superhero can fly from New York to Los Angeles in 30 minutes. The distance from New York to Los Angeles is approximately 2,450 miles. How many miles per hour is the superhero flying?

Answer 1

To find the speed at which the superhero is flying, we need to divide the distance traveled by the time taken:

Speed = Distance/Time

Distance = 2,450 miles
Time = 30 minutes = 0.5 hours

Speed = 2450 miles / 0.5 hours = <<2450/0.5=4900>>4,900 miles per hour

Therefore, the superhero is flying at a speed of 4,900 miles per hour.
