Answer: 2.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: First convert feet to miles. There's 5280 feet in 1 mile, so 3300/5280=0.625 miles. Then find out how long in hours it takes to travel that far. It travels 15 miles an hour, so 0.625/15=0.0417 hours. Then convert hours to minutes by multiplying by 60. 0.0417*60=2.5 minutes.
