There are 6076.12 feet in a nautical mile. So a minute is 1.002 nautical miles.

Al say: a mile is a unit DISTANCE. A minute is a unit of TIME. What makes you ever consider that they could be equal????????????????

formeng say: Miles and minutes are two different things, so one doesn't equal the other. The product of speed and time is distance. So, if your speed is 60 mph and you travel 1 minute 1/60 hour, then you have travelled a distance of 1 mile. Similarly, if your speed is 60 mph and you have travelled for one minute, then your distance covered is 1 mile. This is all covered by the well-known formula
d =rt, where d= distance,r = rate or speed, and t = time.
