False. You would have to multiply speed in miles per minute by 60 to get speed in miles per hour.
Answer:
False . Correct statement is - If you divide speed in miles per minute by 60 you get the same speed expressed in miles per second .
Explanation:
If x miles distance traveled in time, t= 1 minute or 60 seconds at certain speed v given by
v= x miles/minutes
Then [tex]\frac{x}{60}[/tex] distance will be traveled with same speed in time, t= 1/60 minutes or 1 second
In this case also speed is same given by , v= x/60 miles/seconds
=>v= [tex]x \frac{miles}{minute}=\frac{x}{60}\frac{miles}{second}[/tex]
Thus If you divide speed in miles per minute by 60 you get the same speed expressed in miles per second .
