Asked by Jerald

Convert 500feet/minute to miles/hour. So I'd divide 500/5280 to get 0.0946
Answered by Ms. Sue
0.0946 is the number of miles traveled in 1 minute.

Answered by Jerald
With the proportion 500/1 and x/60 am I suppose to multiply 500 and 60 to get 30000
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes.

500/1 and x/60
x = 30,000 feet per minute

30,000/5280 = 5.68 miles per hour



Answered by Reiny
500 ft / minute
= (500/5280) miles / (1/60)hr
= (500/5280)(60) mph
= 5.68 mph

just as Ms Sue got

or

could be done by ratios

500/5280 = x/60
x = 60(500/5280) ----> same result
