310,000 inches per hour is 775/108 feet per second. This correct answer was rejected because is it not the approximate answer 7.176.
Also, I would add a profile to the user definition that would use the relevant locale parameters in the questions, e.g., lengths, areas, volumes, weights, monetary units, etc.
