Answer:

12 miles per hour

Explanation:

The math formula says that 1 foot per hour is equal to 1/5280 mile per hour.

Lets convert 15 feet per second to per hour.

15 * 60 * 60 =54,000 feet per hour.

Now let's use the equation to convert the feet per hour into miles per hour.

54,000/5,280 = 10.2 mph

12 miles per hour is faster.
