Question

 Monica is riding her bicycle at a pace of 311 feet per minute. How many miles will she have biked if she continues for 2 hours and 12 minutes?

Answer 1

Monica covers 311(60) ft per hour; that's 18,660 ft per hour.

multiplying by 2.2 hours (=2 hours + 12 min) gives total distance 46,650 ft.

dividing by 5,280 ft/mile gives 8.835 miles, APPROXIMATELY.
