Question

Jimmy ran with a speed of m miles per hour. How far did he run in t minutes?

Please help me! this is an rsm question and it says that m/t is wrong so please help!

Answer 1

velocity = distance / time OR

v = d / t

In the example he runs 'm' miles in 1 hour

v = 'm' / hour

distance = velocity * time

How far did he run in 't' minutes?

Since there are 60 minutes per hour then the distance is:

distance = (velocity * time) / 60
