sam ran 63,756 feet in 70 minutes. what is sams rate in miles per hour? (there are 5,280 feet in one mile.)…

Explanation:

Step1: Find the rate in feet per minute

The rate is distance divided by time. Sam ran 63756 feet in 70 minutes, so the rate in feet - per - minute is $\frac{63756}{70}=910.8$ feet per minute.

Step2: Convert feet per minute to feet per hour

Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, to convert from feet per minute to feet per hour, we multiply the rate in feet per minute by 60. So, $910.8\times60 = 54648$ feet per hour.

Step3: Convert feet per hour to miles per hour

Since there are 5280 feet in one mile, to convert from feet per hour to miles per hour, we divide the rate in feet per hour by 5280. So, $\frac{54648}{5280}=10.35$ miles per hour.

Answer:

10.35 miles per hour
