An airplane is traveling at a constant speed of 600 miles per hour. how many feet does it travel in 10 seconds? remember that 1 mile is 5280 feet.

The answer is:

The airplane will travel 8800 feet in 10 seconds.

It's a conversion exercise, we need to be careful in order to solve it with no mistakes.

First:

We need to remember that 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes, and 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds, so, to calculate how many seconds are in one hour, we need to perform the following operation:

Second:

We need to convert from miles to feet, we need to remember that 1 mil is equal to 5280 feet.

So, solving we have:

Now, calculating how many feet does it travel in 10 seconds, we have:

We have that the airplane will travel 8800 feet in 10 seconds.

Have a nice day!
