Answer: 2.5 miles per hour

Explanation:

this problem is all about conversions

220 ft per minute

first get it to hours, since there is 60 minute in an hour multiply by a factor of 60

220 ft per minute becomes 13200 ft per hour

then you need to covert from ft to mi, there are 5280 ft in 1 mi so divide by 5280

13200 ft per hour becomes 2.5 miles per hour
