Hello!

First of all we will need to find the circumference, as it is the distance around the wheel. We will use 3.14 for pi.

42(3.14)=131.88

Now we multiply by three to see how far they go in a minute.

131.88(3)=395.64

Now we multiply by 5 to see five minutes.

395.64(5)=1974.2

A passenger will travel approximately 1978.2 feet in 5 minutes.

I hope this helps!
