To convert 96 inches per minute to feet per hour, we can follow these conversion steps:
-
Convert inches to feet: Since there are 12 inches in a foot, we divide the number of inches by 12. \[ 96 , \text{inches} = \frac{96}{12} , \text{feet} = 8 , \text{feet} \]
-
Convert minutes to hours: Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we multiply the feet per minute by 60 to get feet per hour. \[ 8 , \text{feet/minute} \times 60 , \text{minutes/hour} = 480 , \text{feet/hour} \]
Therefore, \[ 96 , \text{inches/minute} = 480 , \text{feet/hour} \]
