To answer a question like this, I usually draw a line (representing a fraction bar). everything on top gets multiplied to form a numerator; everything on bottom is multiplied to get a denominator, then cancel units, then divide numerator/denominator to get the converted units.
So 1 m = 100 cm, and 1 min = 60 sec.
Note the vertical bars are for separation but I multiply:
1 cm | 1 m | 60 sec
----------------------------- = (60/100) m / min = 0.6 meters per minute
1 sec | 100 cm | 1 min
The reason this works is because 1 m = 100 cm, divide both sides by 100 cm and you get (1 m) / (100 cm) = 1/1 = 1, so you're just multiplying by 1, which doesn't change your measurement, just how it is expressed.

Is 50 kilometers per hour greater than 139 centimeters per second?
yes almost 5 times greater 139 cm/sec x 60sec/min = 18,340 cm/min x 60min/hour = 1,100,400 cm/hour /100,000 cm/km = 11.004 km/hour
How do you convert cm sec - meters hr?
cm/sec, yes? ok, divide by 100 to go from cm to m. then multiply by 3600 to go from sec to hr
What does 17cm per km convert to in ft per mi?
That question cannot be answered. Did you mean 17cm per minute? If so, 17 cm /min = 6.6929 inches/min = 0.5577 ft/min (rounded to second decimal).
How do you convert cm hr - km sec?
( K cm/hr ) x ( 1 meter/100 cm ) x (1 km / 1,000 meters ) x (1 hr / 3,600 sec )= ( K x 1 x 1 x 1 ) / ( 100 x 1,000 x 3,600 ) (cm - m - km - hr) / (hr - cm - m - sec)= K / 360,000,000 km/secTake the number of cm per hour. Divide it by 360 millionto get the number of km per second.
What is 32 cm per sec equals how many meters per min?
To convert cm per sec to meters per min, we need to consider that there are 60 seconds in 1 minute. So, 32 cm per sec is equivalent to 32*60 = 1920 cm per min. To convert cm to meters, we divide by 100, so 1920 cm/min is equal to 19.2 meters per minute.
How do you convert 36 cm per sec to m per min?
To convert cm to m divide by 100 To convert s to min divide by 60 → 36 cm/s = 36 × (1 cm)/(1 s) = 36 × (1 ÷ 100 m )/(1 ÷ 60 min) = 36 × (1/100 m ÷ 1/60 min) = 36 × 60/100 m/min = 21.6 m/min
How do you convert cm per hour into m per sec?
Divide by 360,000. 100 for cm to metre and 3600 for hour to sec.
How do you convert 3000 cm per sec into miles per hour?
Conversion: cm per second x 0.02237 = miles per hour
What is 10 meters per minute to centimeters per minute?
To convert 10 meters per minute to centimeters per minute, you would multiply by 100 to get the equivalent distance in centimeters. Therefore, 10 meters per minute is equal to 1000 centimeters per minute.
Converting cm per second to miles per hour?

How do you calculate the speed of light in centimeters per hour?
The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second. To convert this to centimeters per hour, multiply by 3600 (the number of seconds in an hour) and then multiply by 100 (to convert meters to centimeters). The speed of light in centimeters per hour is roughly 10792528480000 cm/hr.
How do you convert cm hr - km sec?
( K cm/hr ) x ( 1 meter/100 cm ) x (1 km / 1,000 meters ) x (1 hr / 3,600 sec )= ( K x 1 x 1 x 1 ) / ( 100 x 1,000 x 3,600 ) (cm - m - km - hr) / (hr - cm - m - sec)= K / 360,000,000 km/secTake the number of cm per hour. Divide it by 360 millionto get the number of km per second.
