minute
=

yards
minute

Answer 1

To convert feet per minute to yards per minute, you need to know that there are 3 feet in 1 yard.

To convert 972 feet per minute to yards per minute, you can use the following formula:

\[ \text{yards per minute} = \frac{\text{feet per minute}}{3} \]

Now, substituting the value:

\[ \text{yards per minute} = \frac{972 \text{ feet per minute}}{3} = 324 \text{ yards per minute} \]

So, 972 feet per minute is equivalent to 324 yards per minute.
