$$66km/hr$$
Convert the km on top to meters and the hours on the bottom to seconds.
Do you know how to do this?

haha sure thing @lgbasallote :D

Hint: 1km= 1000meters
        1hour= 60min = 3600 seconds

I haven't done this stuff before. *facepalm*

Did my hint help?

anonymous · Answer

$$(66 \times 1000)m/ (1 \times 3600)\sec$$
That is all the question requires if you are still lost.

anonymous · Answer

66km/hr x 1hr/60 min (so hour cancel, you now have km/min, then multiply km/min by m/km, and the km's cancel, giving you m/min
