First, we need to convert units:
* Inches to feet: 115 inches / 12 inches/foot = 9.58 feet
* Feet to miles: 9.58 feet / 5280 feet/mile ≈ 0.00181 miles
Now, let's use the formula: Time = Distance / Speed
Time = 0.00181 miles / 3 miles/hour ≈ 0.000603 hours
To convert this to seconds:
* Hours to minutes: 0.000603 hours * 60 minutes/hour ≈ 0.0362 minutes
* Minutes to seconds: 0.0362 minutes * 60 seconds/minute ≈ 2.17 seconds
Therefore, at a walking pace of 3 mph, it would take a car approximately 2.17 seconds to travel 115 inches. If the car is going faster, it will take less time.
