Answer:

14080 ft

Explanation:

You want to convert 4 mph to ft/min and then mult. the result by 40 minutes:

4 mph 5280 ft 1 hr

---------- * --------------- * ------------- = 352 ft/min

1 1 mile 60 min

Now multiply this rate (speed) by 40 minutes:

352 ft 40 min

---------- * ------------ = 14080 ft (answer)

min 1

This would be the same as 2 2/3 miles (in 40 min)
