    The turtle swims at a speed of 21,120 yards per minute (12 x 5280 = 63,360, 63,360/3 = 21,120) and the boy swims at a speed of 88 yards per minute. So the turtle swims 21,032 yards per minute faster than the boy.

    12 / 60 minutes = 0.2 miles per minute

    0.2 * 5280 ft = 1056 ft per minute

    1056 : 3 ft = 352 yds per minute

    4.4 x 60 = 264 ft per minute

    264 : 3 = 88 yds per minute

    352 - 88 = 264 yds per minute faster
