Checking in on our Travelbugs
After nearly six months wandering the wilderness it is time for us to check in on our Travelbug Olympics. There are highs and lows, long jumps and stumbles.
As a reminder, the details of our 5 intrepid explorers can be found by clicking here.
Who can tell me a great number fact about the journeys our Travelbugs have been on so far? Use the comments to fill us all in.
the red one has travelled 16280 miles across the world
on average the red bug travelled 3.292677993527508 mph
I worked it our by dividing the miles by the hours
16279mi/4944h=3.292677993527508 mph
The black travel bug travelled in 1.881944444444444/mph. We figured this out by taking the distance- 10027 miles -and dividing it by the duration- 5328 hours -. This got us the average rate that the travel bug travelled around the world.
We used timeanddate.com to see how many days it had been traveling for and we multiplied it by 24 to see how many hours.
This is the average rate of the red I <3 Hackney badge:
16279.6 mi / 5328 hrs = 3.055(to 3 decimal places) mph.
Its been going on for 19,180,800 seconds.
The yellow travel bug went at an average 0.0665728228228228 mph.
The red travel bug went at an average 3.05548048048048 mph.
The blue travel bug went at an average 0 mph.
The black travel bug went at an average 1.881981981981982 mph.
The green travel bug went at an average 0.0669857357357357 mph.
I worked this out by dividing the amount of miles the TBs traveled with the amount of hours since we set them off.
I found out that that the black travel bug has travelled 10027.2 miles and it has been activated for 5328 hours. I did this calculation:
Miles Divided Hours
10027.2 / 5328 = 1.88 mph
I did this calculation so that I could find out how many miles per hour which = 1.88 mph.
The black one travelled about half as fast as a typical human being.
