Determine each rate and then complete the comparison. ben's rate of cycling was 15 feet per second. angela's rate of cycling was 12 miles per hour.

Ben :
15 ft per second

Angela :
12 miles per hr
5280 ft = 1 mile...so 12 miles = (12 * 5280) = 63360 ft
60 seconds per minute60 minutes per hr(60 x 60) = 3600 seconds
63360 / 3600 = 17.6 ft per second

so Ben's rate (15 ft per second) < Angela's rate (12 miles per hr)
