Question

How do you convert 32.4 meters per second to miles per hour?

Answer 1

72.48 mph

Explanation:

32.4 metres per second will be `xx` 3600 for per hour. (`xx` 60 each for minutes, then hour)

`:. = 32.4*60*60 = 116,640` m/h

Then to get into km divide by 1000 (I'm going through kilometres because I don't understand miles)

`116640/1000`= 116.64km/h

To convert km in to miles you add half your km to a quarter of that (or multiply original number by 5/8)
Or you use a conversion calculator.

116.64 `-:`2 = 58.32
58.32 `-:` 4 = 14.58
14.58+58.32 = 72.9 which is close enough
