Answer:
27490.91 furlongs/fortnight
Explanation:
The horse runs at a speed of 5 yards per second.
Number of seconds in 1 fortnight, that is, 2 weeks = [tex]2\times7\times24\times60\times60seconds=1209600seconds[/tex]
Therefore, the distance covered by the horse = [tex]5\times1209600yards[/tex] = 6048000yards
Hence the speed in furlongs per fortnight
= [tex]\frac{6048000}{220}furlongs/fortnight =27490.91furlongs/fortnight[/tex]
