Convert mile/hour to foot/minute
Please provide values below to convert mile/hour [mi/h] to foot/minute [ft/min], or Convert foot/minute to mile/hour.
1 mi/h = 88 ft/min. To convert mile/hour to foot/minute, multiply the value by 88; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ft/min = 0.0113636363636 mi/h). Both units measure speed and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 mi/h = 88 ft/min
- 1 ft/min = 0.0113636363636 mi/h
- 10 mi/h = 880 ft/min
- 100 mi/h = 8800 ft/min
How to Convert Mile/hour to Foot/minute
1 mi/h = 88 ft/min
Example: convert 15 mi/h to ft/min:
15 mi/h = 15 × 88 ft/min = 1320 ft/min

Mile/hour
Mile per hour (mi/h) is a unit of speed representing the number of miles traveled in one hour.
History/Origin
The mile per hour has been used primarily in the United States and the United Kingdom for measuring speed, especially in transportation, since the adoption of the imperial system. Its usage dates back to the widespread use of miles as a distance measure before metric standardization.
Current Use
Today, mi/h is commonly used in the United States and some other countries to express vehicle speeds, speed limits, and other transportation-related velocities. It remains a standard unit in contexts where the imperial system is prevalent.
Foot/minute
Foot per minute (ft/min) is a unit of speed representing the number of feet traveled in one minute.
History/Origin
The foot per minute has been used historically in engineering and construction to measure speed, especially in contexts where imperial units are standard. Its usage predates the widespread adoption of metric units.
Current Use
Today, ft/min is primarily used in fields such as HVAC, ventilation, and certain engineering applications to measure airflow or movement speed where imperial units are preferred.
