if you are traveling 45 miles per hour you will have traveled 45 miles in 1 hour.

since 1 hour = 60 minutes, this means you are traveling .75 miles in 1 minute.

that is because 60 minutes * .75 mies per minute = 45 miles

in 4 minutes you will have traveled 4 minutes * .75 miles per minute = 3 miles.
