clearly, 7.68mi/6min = 7.68/6 mi/min
oops - that's m/min, not miles!
7.68 is the total amount of distance in meters, 6 is the total amount of time in minutes. to get the speed per minute divide the total speed
(7.68 divided by 6)
The answer is 1.28 meters per minute.
(7.68 divided by 6)
The answer is 1.28 meters per minute.
