To convert kilometers to miles, we can use the conversion ratio of 1 kilometer equals about 0.62 miles.
If the airplane travels 900 kilometers per hour, we can find the speed in miles per hour by multiplying 900 by 0.62.
900 x 0.62 = 558
Therefore, the airplane's speed in miles per hour is 558 mph.
To solve this problem, you can use the given conversion ratio of 1 kilometer equals about 0.62 miles.
To convert the airplane's speed from kilometers per hour to miles per hour, you can multiply the given speed in kilometers per hour by the conversion ratio:
900 kilometers per hour * 0.62 miles per kilometer = 558 miles per hour
Therefore, the airplane's speed is 558 miles per hour.
To solve the problem, we need to convert the speed from kilometers per hour to miles per hour.
The conversion ratio given is 1 kilometer equals about 0.62 miles.
To convert from kilometers per hour to miles per hour, we can multiply the speed in kilometers per hour by the conversion ratio.
Let's calculate:
900 kilometers per hour * 0.62 miles/kilometer = 558 miles per hour
Therefore, the airplane's speed in miles per hour is 558.
