3600 sorry

Answer 8

perfect, so I am going to place the miles in the numerator (because the final unit we want miles over hours to represent mph)

Then I'm going to put the seconds diagonal to the other seconds like this

Answer 9

this way, the "seconds" unit can "cancel out"

198000

that's not right

multiply the numerators
multiply the denominators

you get a fraction
