Wait, what was your original question. Are you converting 560 mi/hr to cm/minute or the other way around?

hlilly2413 · Answer

580*

marinebaby · Answer

its converting 5.8 meters / hour to centimeters / minute

anonymous · Answer

5.8 metres  *  1 hour         *    100 cm
1 hour         *  60 minutes  *  1 metres

anonymous · Answer

5.8 * 100 = 580  / 60= 9.67 cm/minute
