speed of first one is given as

[tex]v_1 = 1 mile \: in \: 1 min[/tex]

we also know that

1 mile = 1609 meter

also for time of motion

t = 1 min = 60 s

so in SI units the speed is given as

[tex]v = \frac{1609}{60}[/tex]

[tex]v = 26.82 m/s[/tex]

so 1 mile/min = 26.82 m/s

So here we will say that 1 mile per min is more speed than 20 m/s as we can see that 1 mile / min is 26.82 m/s in SI units after its conversion
