    Annissa, to answer this question you have to do a few conversions:
       - Miles to Feet.
       - Hours to Minutes.
    A Mile has 5280 Feet. An Hour has 60 Minutes. Multiply Miles (60) times Feet (5280) to get Feet Per Hour. Divide that number (FPH) by Minutes in an Hour (60) to get Feet Per Minute. If all this sounds really confusing, step away from it for a few (seconds, minutes, or hours), look at it again and see if there are instances of the same number being multilpied and divided. If that is the case the multiplicand and the divisor would cancel each other out and the answer would be the original value, albeit with a different name. Other than that, good luck. My mom won't let me do the work for you.

      If the car is traveling 60mph and there are sixty minutes in an hour all you need for feet is the amount of feet in one mile for an answer.
