A hippo can travel up to 40 miles per hour. What is the hippos speed, to the nearest tenth, in feet per minute? Show your work and place your final answer in the box.
(1 mile=5280 ft)

Answer 1

40 mph
40 x 5,280 = 211,200
That is in feet per hour, so to get feet per minute you divide by 60
211,200 ÷ 60 = 3,520

Answer: 3,520 feet per second
