$85$ $85$ inches per minute

$12$ $12$ inches $= 1$ $=1$ foot and $60$ $60$ minutes $= 1$ $=1$ hour

So:

$\frac{425 f t}{1 h r} \times \frac{1 h r}{60 m} \times \frac{12 i}{1 f t}$ $(425 ft)/(1 hr)xx(1 hr)/(60 m)xx(12 i)/(1 ft)$

Cancel units:

$(425 cancel(ft))/(1 cancel(hr))xx(1 cancel(hr))/(60 m)xx(12 i)/(1 cancel(ft))$

Multiply across:

$(425 xx 12 i)/(60 m)=(5100 i)/(60 m)=85$ inches per minute
