To determine how many miles per hour the bird is flying, we need to convert the speed from miles per minute to miles per hour.
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can multiply the distance the bird flies in one minute by 60.
Here’s the calculation:
- Speed in miles per minute = 23
- Speed in miles per hour = 23 miles/minute × 60 minutes/hour = 1380 miles/hour
Therefore, the bird is flying at a speed of 1380 miles per hour.
