if we have 200, five-hundred pound men, riding in a bus traveling at 178 miles per hour, what is the average speed of this bus if it has to stop for 5 minutes at a frankfurter stand.. these men are hungry.. they order 800 frankfurters.. after this frankfurter stop, the bus immediately speeds back to 178 miles per hour... what is the average speed of this bus over a 100 mile course????

100 miles/ 178 milesper hour
=0.561799... hours
=33.707... minutes
Add 5 minutes
38.707... minutes
Reconvert to hours
=0.645116 hours
find spped
100 miles/0645116 hours
=155.01.... miles per hour
Approximately 155 miles per hour. The 200 500 pound men don't make a difference. They must be REALLY FAST.

No Idea, but i think the bus would break if it had 200 500 pound men in it, and i don't think it's possible for them to go 178 mph with them in it, and that means they would all eat what, i dont know a lot of frankfurters, meaning they would become even heavier, lol

Ummm how big is this bus? A bus holding 200-500 lb men would have to be literally like 150 feet long.
