a squirrel can run at a speed of 20 miles per hour. How many feet per second is this?

2 answers

20mi/1h * 5280 ft./ 1mi * 1hr/60min * 1 min/60 sec

multiply 20 * 5280 on the top for 105,600 and then divide by 3600 (the 60 * 60 on the bottom) All the units will cancel out except miles on top and seconds on bottom. You get 29.3 feet/sec
