Answer:

The correct answer is - 63.61 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meter and miles both are the measuring units of distance and speed units are meter per second and miles per hour. The numerical relation between these two units are as follows:

1 meter per second = 2.24 miles per hour

The car travels 28.4 m/s so in miles per hour it would be:

So, 28.4 meters per second = 28.4 * 2.24 miles per hour

28.4 meters per second = 63.61 miles per hour.

Thus, the correct answer is - 63.61 miles per hour.
