Given:

Average sneeze can travel =

[tex]\frac{3}{100}\text{miles in 3 seconds}[/tex]

This means it can travel 0.03 miles in 3 seconds

[tex]3\text{ seconds = }\frac{3}{60}\min utes[/tex]

Let's find the rate per minute.

Since 60 seconds make 1 minute, the rate will be:

[tex]\frac{3}{100}\times\frac{60}{3}=\frac{180}{300}=\frac{3}{5}=0.6\text{ mile per minute}[/tex]

Therefore, sneeze can travel 0.6 mile in one minute.

ANSWER:

0.6 MILE per minute
