A monkey swings from branch to branch at an average distance of 1.2 meters per second. How far will a monkey swing in meters if it consistently swings from branches for 30 minutes? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
If a monkey swings 1.2 meters a second then a monkey can swing 1.2 meters / second * 60 seconds / minute = 72 meters in a minute. If a monkey swings 72 meters in a minute then a monkey can swing 72 meters / min * 30 minutes = 2,160 meters in 30 minutes. So, the answer is 2160.
