    28 miles in 7 minutes, 240 miles in an hour

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can first simplify the rate to miles per minute. Since the plane goes 12 miles in 3 minutes, we can divide it by 3 to find how much it travels in one minute. 12 divided by 3 is 4 and 3 divided by 3 is 1

    The plane travels 4 miles a minute

    To find how much it travels in 7 minutes, multiply by 7

    4x7 is 28

    28 miles in 7 minutes

    To find an hour, multiply by 60

    4x60 = 240

    240 miles in an hour
