Porter on the swim team, in addition to swimming he runs as training.

Question

porter checks his heart rate half way through his session, as told bellow.

Running- 42 beats in 1/4 minute
Swimming- 53 beats in 1/3 minutes

whats is his heart rate when he runs?

Answer 1

To find Porter’s heart rate while running, we need to calculate the number of beats per minute (bpm).

1. Running:

   • He has 42 beats in 1/4 minute.
   • To find the heart rate in beats per minute, we can scale it up to a full minute. Since there are 4 quarters in a minute, we multiply the number of beats by 4:

   \[ \text{Heart rate (bpm)} = 42 \text{ beats} \times 4 = 168 \text{ bpm} \]

Thus, Porter's heart rate when he runs is 168 beats per minute.

Answer 2

Whats the heart rate for running?

Answer 3

We already calculated Porter’s heart rate while running based on the information provided.

To reiterate:

• Porter recorded 42 beats in 1/4 minute while running.
• To convert this to beats per minute (bpm), we can scale it:

\[ \text{Heart rate (bpm)} = 42 \text{ beats} \times 4 = 168 \text{ bpm} \]

Thus, Porter's heart rate while running is 168 beats per minute.

Answer 4

and swimming?

Answer 5

To find Porter’s heart rate while swimming, we can use the information you provided:

• Porter records 53 beats in 1/3 minute while swimming.

Now, we need to convert this to beats per minute (bpm):

1. Since there are 3 thirds in a minute, we can scale it up by multiplying the number of beats by 3:

\[ \text{Heart rate (bpm)} = 53 \text{ beats} \times 3 = 159 \text{ bpm} \]

Thus, Porter’s heart rate while swimming is 159 beats per minute.
