Only male crickets chirp. They chirp at different rates depending on their species and the temperature of their environment. Suppose a certain species is currently chirping at a rate of 82 chirps per minute. At this rate, how many chirps occur in one hour? In one 24-hour day? In one 365-day year?

4920

7084800

2585952000

Step-by-step explanation:

82 chirps = 1 minute

We have 60 minutes in one hour, so 82 x 60 = 4920 chirps in one hour

In 24 hours we have 60x24 = 1440 minutes and in one minutes we have 4920 chirps,

Therefore 4920 x 1440 mins = 7084800 chirps in one day.

There are 365 days in a year and in one day the cricket chirps 7084800, so 365 days x 7084800 = 258595200 chirps in a year
