Emmanuel was speaking with a friend from another country. His friend told him that the speed limit on most highways is 100 kilometers per hour in her country. This speed sounded fast to Emmanuel. Approximately what speed is this in miles per hour? Round to the nearest whole number.
62mph
To convert kilometers per hour to miles per hour, you can use the following conversion factor: 1 kilometer per hour (kph) is equal to 0.621371 miles per hour (mph).
To find the approximate speed in miles per hour, you can multiply the given speed of 100 kilometers per hour by the conversion factor:
100 kph × 0.621371 mph/kph ≈ 62.1371 mph
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the approximate speed is 62 miles per hour.
100km/hr*1mile/1.609km
