Question

60 yards
minute
=

inches
second

Answer 1

To convert 60 yards per minute to inches per second, you can follow these steps:

1. Convert yards to inches:
- There are 36 inches in a yard.
- Therefore, \( 60 \text{ yards} = 60 \times 36 \text{ inches} = 2160 \text{ inches} \).

2. Convert minutes to seconds:
- There are 60 seconds in a minute.
- So, \( 1 \text{ minute} = 60 \text{ seconds} \).

3. Now calculate inches per second:
- \( \text{Inches per second} = \frac{2160 \text{ inches}}{60 \text{ seconds}} = 36 \text{ inches/second} \).

Thus, \( 60 \text{ yards/minute} = 36 \text{ inches/second} \).
