Answer:

32 minutes

Explanation:

There are 60 seconds in a minute

That means we will need to know how many feet he walks in a minute

So we would do 3 x 60 which equals 180 so he walks 180 ft per miute

Now we need to figure out how many minutes it took for him to walk 5760 ft.

So we would do 5760 รท 180 which equals 32

So the aswer is 32 minutes for him to walk 5760 ft.

Hope this helps
