If someone ran a marathon of 26.2 miles in 1 hour, 18 minutes, and 27 seconds, how do I find out how many miles per minute they ran?

an hour is 60 minutes, plus the 18 minutes = 78 minutes a minute is 60 seconds, so 78 * 60 = 4680. Plus the 27 seconds, it's 4707 seconds. convert it back into minutes, 4707 / 60 = 78.45 minutes so 26.2 divided 78.45 = 0.33397068196 Round that, so they ran 0.3 miles per minute.

To find the miles per minute, convert the total time (1 hour, 18 minutes, and 27 seconds) into minutes, which totals approximately 78.45 minutes. Then divide the distance of 26.2 miles by that time, resulting in about 0.3 miles per minute. Thus, the runner averaged around 0.3 miles per minute.
