Default time/distance calculation

how do I set up a calculation for time/distance. For instance, if 6 miles per
hour and you have .5 miles to go-what is the time in decimal?

Default

In minutes...
=(Length*60)/MPH
= (.5 * 60) / 6 = 5 minutes

As a decimal of an hour...
=Length/MPH
= .5 / 6 = .083333
