Question

Kenji walks 44 feet in 10 seconds. At this rate, how many miles does Kenji walk in an hour? Show your work. (1 mile= 5,280 feet)​

Answer 1

44 feet in 10 seconds = 44 x 6 (since there are 60 seconds in a minute) = 264 feet per minute

264 feet per minute x 60 minutes (since there are 60 minutes in one hour) = 15,840 feet per hour

15,840 feet per hour / 5,280 feet (since there are 5,280 feet in 1 mile) = 3 miles per hour
