kmartinez2849, this is the solution:

Let's recall that:

1 inch/second = 5 feet/minute

Thus:

12 inch/second = 5 * 12 feet/minute

12 inch/second = 60 feet/minute

Let's recall that:

1 feet = 12 inches

1 minute = 60 seconds

Therefore:

1 inch/second * 60 = 60 inches/minute

Converting inches to feet

60 inches = 5 feet

In conclusion, 5 feet/minute
