So what we would do here is take the equation r=d/t
65 = d/1/60
65/60 = d
1.1 miles in 1 minute

To solve this problem, we are going to use a process called dimensional analysis. This involves multiplying our original values by fractions that are equivalent to 1.

Our original value is 65 miles/1 hour. We are trying to get this into the amount of hours you drive in minutes, by multiplying this by 1 hour/60 minutes.

65 miles/1 hour * 1 hour/60 minutes = 65/60 miles/minute = about 1.1 mile/min

Therefore, your answer is that you drive 1.1 mile in a minute.

Hope this helps!
