You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Rate*Time=Distance
R%2At=D
Your rate is in miles per hour so convert your time to hours.
60 minutes in 1 hour.
60 seconds in 1 minute.
3600 (60*60) seconds in 1 hour.
1 second equals 1/3600 hours.
R%2At=D
90%2A%281%2F3600%29=D
D=90%2F3600=1%2F400 mile
1 mile is 5280 feet
D=5280%2F400=13.2 feet
