A train moves at a speed of 60 miles per hour. How many yards per minute does the train travel? There are 1,760 yards in a mile and 60 minutes in an hour.(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the speed in yards per minute, we need to convert miles to yards and hours to minutes.

First, let's convert 60 miles to yards:
60 miles * 1760 yards/mile = <<60*1760=105600>>105,600 yards

Now, let's convert 1 hour to minutes:
1 hour * 60 minutes/hour = <<1*60=60>>60 minutes

Finally, we divide the distance in yards by the time in minutes to find the speed:
105,600 yards / 60 minutes = <<105600/60=1760>>1760 yards per minute

Therefore, the train travels at a speed of 1760 yards per minute.
