D=rt is the base formula for this.
distance=rate×time
The two known variables are the distance (10 miles) and the rate (55 or 60mph). There are two equations which can be formulated and solved for comparison.
10=55x 10=60x
10/55=x 10/60=x
.187=x .167=x
The last step is to convert the hours to minutes and minute remainders to seconds.
.187×60minutes=10.07 .167×60minutes=11.22
1 minute, 9 seconds

The Battle of the Little Bighorn, fought on June 25, 1876,
near the Little Bighorn River in Montana Territory, pitted federal
troops led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer (1839-76)
against a band of Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne warriors. Tensions between
the two groups had been rising since the discovery of gold on Native
American lands. When a number of tribes missed a federal deadline to
move to reservations, the U.S. Army, including Custer and his 7th
Calvary, was dispatched to confront them. Custer was unaware of the
number of Indians fighting under the command of Sitting Bull (c.1831-90)
at Little Bighorn, and his forces were outnumbered and quickly
overwhelmed in what became known as Custer’s Last Stand.
