Convert the meters to miles as follows using the "slash and burn" technique. Make sure your units cancel and you're left with the correct units at the end.

I alway remember that one inch equals 2.54 cm and there are 100 cm in a meter so.....

400 meters = 40,000 cm * 1 inch / 2.54 cm * 1 foot / 12 inches * 1 miles / 5,280 feet

= .24855 miles

Now, convert 1 minute and 42 seconds into hours

1 min 42 sec = 1 and 42/60 minutes or 1.7 minutes

1.7 minutes * 1 hour/60 minutes = .028333 hours

So, you have

0.24855 miles/0.028333 hours = 8.7725 miles/hour

How do you convert 65 miles per hour to meters per second?

A car traveling 65 miles per hour would go 65 miles in one hour. A mile is equal to 1600 meters (one kilometer). Therefore, in one hour that would equate to going 1600 meters 65 times. 65 times 1600 is equal to 104,000 meters (or 104 kilometers). And since there are 60 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute, each hour has 3600 seconds (60*60=3600). Take the 104,000 and divide it by 3600 to come up with the answer.
