Maths exsperiment with the brain


Commonwealth Maths
How fast is Usain Bolt? He is the fastest man in the world.

The World’s Fastest Man

Usain Bolt holds the 100m World Record at 9.58 seconds.
1. Going at that speed, how long would it take him to run:
(a) 1km (1000m) 9.58=100m x 10=9.58                
 (b) 1 mile (1600 metres) (1.6km) It takes Usain-Bolt like about 153.28
(c) A marathon (26.2 miles) A marathon would be about  like 4015.936

2.  What is his speed in?  This would be around 44.72km/h
(a) Metres per second?   This would be 12.42m/s
(b) Miles per hour?           Around 27.44
