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 a hour
To convert miles per hour to yards per minute, let's first convert the speed from miles per hour to yards per hour.
Since 1 mile equals 1,760 yards, we can multiply the speed of 60 miles per hour by 1,760 yards per mile:
60 miles/hour * 1,760 yards/mile = 105,600 yards/hour
Now, to convert from yards per hour to yards per minute, we divide by the number of minutes in an hour, which is 60 minutes:
105,600 yards/hour ÷ 60 minutes/hour = 1,760 yards/minute
Therefore, the train travels at a speed of 1,760 yards per minute.
To find the speed of the train in yards per minute, we need to convert miles to yards and hours to minutes.
Firstly, we know that there are 1,760 yards in a mile. So we can multiply the train's speed in miles per hour by the conversion factor:
60 miles/hour * 1,760 yards/mile = 105,600 yards/hour
Now, we need to convert hours to minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can multiply the speed in yards per hour by the conversion factor:
105,600 yards/hour * 1 hour/60 minutes = 1,760 yards/minute
Therefore, the train travels at a speed of 1,760 yards per minute.
To find the train's speed in yards per minute, we need to convert both miles and hours to yards and minutes, respectively.
Since there are 1,760 yards in a mile, we can multiply the train's speed in miles per hour by 1,760 to get the speed in yards per hour.
So, 60 miles per hour × 1,760 yards per mile = 105,600 yards per hour.
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can further divide the speed in yards per hour by 60 to get the speed in yards per minute.
So, 105,600 yards per hour ÷ 60 minutes per hour = 1,760 yards per minute.
Therefore, the train travels at a speed of 1,760 yards per minute.
