convert seconds to hour :-
60x60 seconds = 1 hour ?

in 1 hour, you got 60x60 = 3600 seconds
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
every second you're transmitting 2 megabytes
so every 3600 seconds how many megabytes you wud be transmitting ?
OpenStudy (candy13106):
yea i already knew that
OpenStudy (candy13106):
um not quiet sure for that question
OpenStudy (candy13106):
u there

OpenStudy (candy13106):
ok than ill try
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
good luck :D
OpenStudy (candy13106):
so u wud do 3600 divide by 2 right
OpenStudy (candy13106):
ok than ill try

nopes, you wud multiply 2 megabytes wid 3600
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
that gives you how many megabytes are transmitted per hour (3600 seconds)
OpenStudy (candy13106):
oh ok so the oppsite right
OpenStudy (candy13106):
7200 right
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
yes ! 7200 megabytes per hour

so is that the answer
'
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large 2 \frac{MB}{sec}\)
\(\large 2 \frac{MB}{sec} \times \frac{60 \times 60 sec}{hour}\)
\(\large 2 \frac{MB}{\cancel{sec}} \times \frac{60 \times 60 \cancel{sec}}{hour}\)
\(\large \frac{2 \times 60 \times 60 MB }{hour}\)
\(\large \frac{7200 MB }{hour}\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
yes thats the answer, you can also write it as :-
7.2 gigabytes per hour
OpenStudy (candy13106):
yea and u got ot cancle out the hours right
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
nopes. hour stays,
sec got cancelled cuz its there top and bottom

your math teacher is right ! sec has 2, but hour has oly one.. :)
OpenStudy (candy13106):
ok well i guess ur right wats next
