1. **Problem:** Convert 20 miles per hour (mi/hr) to inches per second (in/s).
2. **Formula and conversion factors:**
- 1 mile = 5280 feet
- 1 foot = 12 inches
- 1 hour = 3600 seconds
3. **Step-by-step conversion:**
\[20 \frac{\text{mi}}{\text{hr}} = 20 \times \frac{5280 \text{ ft}}{1 \text{ mi}} = 105600 \frac{\text{ft}}{\text{hr}}\]
4. Convert feet to inches:
\[105600 \frac{\text{ft}}{\text{hr}} = 105600 \times 12 \frac{\text{in}}{\text{ft}} = 1267200 \frac{\text{in}}{\text{hr}}\]
5. Convert hours to seconds:
\[1267200 \frac{\text{in}}{\text{hr}} = 1267200 \times \frac{1 \text{ hr}}{3600 \text{ s}} = \frac{1267200}{3600} \frac{\text{in}}{\text{s}}\]
6. Simplify the fraction:
\[= \cancel{\frac{1267200}{3600}} = 352 \frac{\text{in}}{\text{s}}\]
7. **Answer:** 20 miles per hour is equal to 352 inches per second.
