To find the speed in feet per minute, we need to convert both miles and hours to feet and minutes respectively.
1 mile = 5,280 feet
1 hour = 60 minutes
Therefore, the speed in feet per minute can be calculated as:
(100 miles/hour) x (5,280 feet/mile) ÷ (60 minutes/hour)
Simplifying:
(100 x 5,280) ÷ 60
528,000 ÷ 60
The speed in feet per minute is 8,800 feet per minute.
