Will this work?

30mi = 1hr = 60min

30mi = 60min

Flip it around

How long would it take to go 1 mile - explain that you have to divide 30mi by 30 to get 1 mi, but you have to do the same to the minutes.

30mi/30 = 1 mi 60min/30 = 2 min

(my 3rd grader seemed to do well when the answer wasn't a fraction)
