3520/5280 = 2/3 of a mile per minute.

2/3 x 60 minutes per hour = 40 miles per hour.

40-30 = 10

Bison runs 40 miles per hour

The bison runs 10 miles an hour faster than the deer

Answer:

American bison is faster than the white-tailed deer by 10 more miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 hour there are 60 minutes.

=> 3520 feet = 1 minute

=> 60 minutes = 3520 x 60

=> 211200 feet = 60 minutes

So, 211200 feet can be converted in miles.

=> 1 mile = 5280 feet

=> 211200 feet = x miles

=> x = 211200 / 5280

=> x = 40 miles per hour.

So, a white-tailed deer can run up to 30 miles per hour.

     an American bison can run up to 40 miles per hour.

American bison runs 10 more miles per hour than a white-tailed deer.
