1 mile = 5280 feet\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "distance/time = speed\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We want to know a time. So we need distance/speed = time.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Remember that all the unit measurements should be same type. So to convert feet into miles we divide by 5280.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "200/5280 = 0.0378 miles.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(200/5280)/40 = 0.00094697 hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To convert to seconds we times by 3600 to give 3.4 seconds.
\n" ); document.write( "
