Respuesta :

Answer:

An African Elephant can reach a top speed of about 24 mph because 36 ÷ 3/2 = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of an African elephant be y mph .

The top speed of grizzly bear = 36 mph

Note the speed of bear is 3/2 of the speed of the African Elephant.

since the speed of bear is 3/2 × y,  then

3/2 × y = 36

multiply both sides by 2

3y = 72

divide both sides by 3

y = 72/3

y = 24 mph
