Question

A rate of 8 feet per second is equal to how many feet per minute?

Answer 1

Answer:

480 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given 8 feet per second and we know there are 60 seconds in a minute,

we multiply:

8x60= how many feet per minute.

last step: so we know there are 480 feet per minute by multiplying 60 and 8.

Answer 2

Answer:

480 feet per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

8 feet per second is your base number.

8 * x = y

all you have to find from there is how many seconds are in a minute. (x)

60 seconds are in a minute so substitute x for 60.

8 * 60 = y

Then multiply your numbers and you get 480.
