Question

Kevin needs to convert 620 millimeters per minute to meters per hour. Which conversion factors should he use?

Answer 1

There are 60 minutes in an hour, so multiply the distance by 60 and that is the solution.

Answer 2

Oooh wait, also move the point in 620.00 4 times to the left.

Answer 3

So:

620.
62.
6.2
0.62

Then times 60 and that is the answer:

0.62 • 60 = 37.2

Answer 4

| meters | deci | centi | milli |

Answer 5

always check the type of measure in this case you have volume and time
and then convert like types
volume with volume and time with time in this problem
milliliters to liters and minutes to hours
1000mL = 1L and 60 minutes = 1 hour

Answer 6

sorry you have distance and time
millimeters to meters
apply the principle

Answer 7

so can do any one conversion first the order does not matter. what is important is which way are you going bigger to smaller or reverse to use the correct conversion factor

Answer 8

620mm/min so for 60 min = 620mm(60)/hr then divide by 1000 to get meters

37.2m/hr
