If a rocket that is launched into space travels at 300 feet per second then how fast is the rocket traveling in yards per minute, explain how you got the answer

Since there is 60 seconds in one minute, you would multiply 300 by 60, giving you the answer of 18,000

First lets put the feet into yards.

There are 3 feet in 1 yard.

300 is divisible by 3, so divide 300 by 3.

300 / 3 = 100

So far we have concluded that the rocket travels 100 yards per second.

There are 60 seconds in 1 minute

We have figured out what it travels in 1 second

To figure this out we need to multiply 100 by 60

100 * 60 = 6,000

The rocket travels 6,000 yards per minute
