Note: These Challenge Questions coincide with the Spring 2006 Reports Challenge Question #3 From: by way of Journey North <susamel.biz@brounstein.com> Date: Sun Mar 19 2006 - 10:52:02 EST We estimate that it will take 50 to 83days and 8 hours to go from Mexico to Alaska. Whales travel between 3 and 5 miles per hour. >From Mexico to Alaska is 6000 miles If they travel at 3mph                           6000miles divided by 3mph = 2000 hours                           Since there are 24 hours in a day 2000hrs. divided by 24 = 83days & 8hrs. If they traveled at 4mph                           6000 divided by 4 = 1500 hours                           1500 divided by 24 = 62 days & 12 hrs. If they traveled at 5mph                           6000 divided by 5 = 1200 hours                           1200 divided by 24 = 50 hrs. Depending on the actual speed of the whale, it will take 50 to 83.3 days.
