Answer:

speed of James is: 3.75 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the speed of James in miles per hour(mi/hr)

we know that 1 mile=5280 feet

James takes 120 steps in 1 minute so he will cover 120×60 steps in 1 hour.

i.e. he takes 7200 steps in 1 hour.

also each step of James=2.75 feet

total distance covered by James in 1 hour=2.75×7200 feet=19800 feet

[tex]19800feet=\frac{19800}{5280} miles=3.65miles[/tex]

hence speed of James= (distance covered by james in 1 hour)/1 hour

speed of James=3.75 miles/hour.

Thanks!!
