Convert that to miles per hour

Answer 2

how do you convert ?

Answer 3

Well, there's 2.54 cm in one ince. So, if you divide by 2.54. Then there's 12 inches in 1 ft, so divide again. Then there's 5280 ft in 1 mile, so divide again. That gets you in miles per sec

Answer 4

1996 cm x 1in/2.54 cm x 1 ft/12 in x 1 mile/5280 ft

Answer 5

Then you have to convert seconds to minutes. 60 sec in 1 minute, so multiply by 60. And, 60 min in 1 hour, so multiply by 60 again. That will give you miles per hour
