Let's solve this step by step.

Given:

• Melissa's walking speed: 88 feet per minute
• Convert this to miles per hour.
• 1 mile = 5280 feet
• 1 hour = 60 minutes

Conversion:

1. Convert feet per minute to feet per hour: $88 \text{ feet/min} \times 60 \text{ min/hour} = 5280 \text{ feet/hour}$
2. Convert feet per hour to miles per hour: $\frac{5280 \text{ feet/hour}}{5280 \text{ feet/mile}} = 1.0 \text{ miles per hour}$

Answer:

The correct choice is 1.0 miles per hour.
