1500 m/day=____km/h

OpenStudy (habbster):

(1500/1000)/24

OpenStudy (habbster):

1500 is the given 1000 is the conversion of 1km = 1000m 24 h= 1 day

OpenStudy (anonymous):

36

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

The reliable way to do this is to write it as a fraction multiplication with all the units. \[1500 \frac{m}{day}*\frac{1 km}{1000 m} * \frac{1 day}{24 hr} = 1500 *\frac{1 km}{24000hr} = \]

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

1500 m/day, if that's meters and not miles, is only 1.5 km. How could 36 km/h possibly be the right answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

meters

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 1500m }{ 1day }=\frac{ 1.5km }{ 24hr }\]

OpenStudy (habbster):

1.5/24= 0.0625 so the final answer should be 0.0625 km per hour

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Yes, 0.0625 km/h is the correct answer.
