Question

Steve rides his bike at a rate of 1760 feet per minute. What is his rate in miles per hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is  19.36 miles per hours

Step-by-step explanation:

this problem is a unit conversion problem

In this problem, we are expected to convert from feet/min to miles per hour

given that the rate is 1760 feet per minute

from tables, we are given that

1 foot per minute is  0.011 miles per hour hence

1760 feet per minutes will give x miles per hour

cross multiplying we have

x= 1760*0.011

x= 19.36 miles per hours
