To convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour, we need to multiply the speed in miles per hour by the conversion factor.
Speed in miles per hour = 17 miles per hour
Conversion factor = 1 kilometer / 0.062 miles
Speed in kilometers per hour = 17 miles per hour * (1 kilometer / 0.062 miles)
Speed in kilometers per hour = 17 / 0.062 kilometers per hour
Speed in kilometers per hour = 274.1935 kilometers per hour (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Therefore, Delta's speed in kilometers per hour is approximately 274.2 kilometers per hour.
