How do you convert 17 cmon minute to miles an hour
eimsori [14]

Answer:

0.006 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Speed in cm per minute ( 17 cm per min)

We are required to convert cm per minute to miles an hour

we need to know that;

1 miles = 160934 cm

1 hour = 60 minutes

We can convert 17 cm to miles and 1 minute to hours

17 cm = 17 ÷ 160934 cm

          = 17/160934

1 minute = 1/60 hour

Therefore;

In miles per hour;

  = (17/160934) ÷ (1/60)

  = 0.00634 miles per hour

  = 0.006 miles per hour

Therefore, 17 cm per minute is equivalent to 0.006 miles per hour
