Answer:
Honey bee
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed of bumble bee=2340/13
=180
Speed of honey bee=1470/7
=210
Since 210 is more than 180 hence the honey bee beats it's wings at a faster rate
Answer:
Bumble Bee: 180 beats per second
Honey Bee: 210 beats per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
To first figure this out, you need to convert this data into fractional ratios.
For this scenario (beats/seconds) so the fractions would be [tex]\frac{2340}{13}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1470}{7}[/tex].
Now that we have these we need to make the denominator equal 1. This will show us the beats per second for each bee. To do this divide the top and the bottom by the said denominator.

Bumble Bee:
[tex]\frac{2340}{13}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2340/13}{13/13}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{180}{1}[/tex]
In this case, the Bumble Bee beats its wings at a ratio of 180 beats every second.
---------
Honey Bee:
[tex]\frac{1470}{7}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1470/7}{7/7}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{210}{1}[/tex]
In this case, the Honey Bee beats its wings at a ratio of 210 beats per second.
