A piece of equipment moves 16.5 yards in 12 minutes. how many feet does it move per minute? round the answer to three decimal places

To solve the feet per minute of the equipment, we must solve the velocity of the the equipment. where velocity is:

V = d / t

where d is the distance traveled

t is the time of travel

V = 16.5 yard / 12 min

V = 1.375 yard / min (3 ft / 1 yard)

V = 4.125 ft / min
