Please help me Im so confused right now

A car is traveling at a rate of 90 miles per hour. What is the car’s rate in feet per second? How many feet will the car travel in 2 seconds? In your computations, use the fact that 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet. Do not round your answers.

Answer:

The car is traveling 475200 feet per hour. That means in 2 seconds it will have gone 264 feet.

Explanation:

you have to times 90 by 5280 to get the feet per hour. And then divided by 60 twice the first time you get minute and then when you divided by 60 again you get seconds and then you times it by 2 to get 264 feet a second.
