First of all, you can convert meters to feet. Since one meter is #3.2808399# feet, this means that #2.7# meters are #2.7 \times 3.2808399# feet, which is #8.85826772# feet.
Now, if you know that in a second you travel #8.85826772# feet, how many feet you will travel in a minute? Assuming the speed to be constant, the distance traveled in a minute will be #60# times the distance traveled in a second, so #60 \times 8.85826772=531.4960632#, which is the final answer, since now we are expressing speed with feet per minute.
In case you wondered, this is #0.26# the speed at which Usain Bolt runs his best #100# meters :)
