The inhabitants of the planet Rundia can run footraces similar to those run on Earth. However, Rundians measure the distances they run in bars, where one bar measures of a meter, and they measure time in ticks, where there are 100 ticks in one minute. Rundian sprinter Sejes Wesno can run a 100-bar race in 9.58 ticks. The great Earth sprinter Usain Bolt ran a 100-meter race in 9.58 seconds. If Wesno is k times as fast as Bolt, what is the value of k? Round to nearest hundredth.

 

This question was in the link https://web2.0calc.com/questions/math-question_125, but the answer is not 1.30. It is actually 1.11. Does anyone know how?

Look under your question of yesterday where you changed 9.58 seconds to 11.53 ticks. if 11.53 ticks is accurate, then the answer is 1.11 rounded to the nearest hundredth place.
