Question

Kenjii walks 44 feet in 10 seconds. At this rate, how many miles does kenjii walk in an hour? Show the work. ( 1 mile=5,280 feet)

Answer 1

3 mile

Explanation:

Given,

Kenji walks 44ft per 10 seconds or 4.4 ft per second

This means:

One minutes (60 Seconds), he will travel as distance of 4.4 ft x 60 seconds = 264 ft/minute

One hours (60 minutes), he will travel 264ft/minute x 60 minute = 15840 ft/hour

Given, 1 mile = 5,280 ft

`(1 mile)/(5280) = (x)/(15840) \\\\5280x = 15840\\\\x = 15840/5280\\x = 3 mile`
