Answer 1

To convert 100 inches per minute to feet per minute, we need a conversion factor to convert inches to feet. It is known that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. We use this information.

100 inches / minute ( 1 foot / 12 inches) = 8.33 feet / minute

Answer 2

Explanation:

Since, it is given that we have to convert 100 inches per minute into feet per minute. So, it is known that in 1 inch there are 0.0833 foot.

Therefore, converting 100 inches per minute into feet per minute as follows.

                        1 inch = 0.0833 foot

100 inch per minute = $0.0833 \text{ft/min}\times 100$

                                   = $\frac{833 \text{ft/min}}{10000} \times 100$

                                   = 8.33 ft/min

Hence, we can conclude that 100 inches per minute equals to 8.33 feet per minute.
