Molly jogged at a rate of 6 miles per hour. what was her speed in feet per second?

To solve this problem, you need to set up a proportion. If she jogs 6 miles per hour, then this can be written as . If there are 5280 feet in a single mile, then first we multiply the two proportions like this:

The two 'mile' values cancel each other out, so then just multiply . This equals to 31680 feet per hour. Now let's  convert to seconds.

, or 360 seconds every hour. Since hours are much longer than seconds, multiply 31680 by the reciprocal of 360, so that it makes sense.

She runs 88 feet per second.
