Question

Use unit multiplier to perform the following rate conversion880 yards in 2 minutes to feet per minute

Answer 1

1320 feet per minute

Explanation:

We can calculate equivalence knowing the conversion factor between yards and feet.

We know that one yard is equal to 3 feet, so:

`\begin{gathered} \frac{880\text{ yd}}{2\text{ min}}=440(yd)/(\min)\cdot\frac{3\text{ ft}}{1\text{ yd}}=1320(ft)/(\min ) \\ \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the equivalence is 1320 feet per minute
