To find the answer, we need to convert 60 miles per hour to yards per minute.
First, we need to convert 60 miles to yards. Since there are 1,760 yards in a mile, we multiply 60 by 1,760 to get 105,600 yards.
Second, we need to convert hours to minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we multiply 60 by 60 to get 3,600 minutes.
Finally, we divide the total yards by the total minutes: 105,600 yards / 3,600 minutes = 29.33 yards per minute.
Therefore, the train travels at a speed of approximately 29.33 yards per minute.
