Answer 1

Answer:

A. 14,520 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off this problem, we need to find how many miles James walks per hour. To do that, lets divide 11 by 4.

$x=\frac{11}{4}$

$x=2.75$

Next, since 5,280 feet are in a mile, we need to multiply 2.75 by 5,280:

$x=2.75(5,280)$

$x=14,520$

James walked 14,520 ft. in one hour.
