A hummingbird's little wings beat an average of 20 to 25 times per second. During some of their dives their wings may beat up to 200 times per second. If a hummingbird was beating its wings at an average speed (using the top end of the scale) how many times would there wings beat in:
a) one minute
b) five minutes
c) one hour
d) half a day

For this Math P.O.W. , what is the top end of the scale???
