Question

Find the product. List the units: 29/2 sec x 60mb/sec

Answer 1

14.5 sec x 60mb/sec= 870mb

This means 870mb is produced for 29/2 secs

Answer 2

The product is 870 mb.

Explanation:

This is a multiplication of fractions problem.

In these problems, we multiply the numerators and the denominators.

For example:

`(1)/(2)*(3)/(5) = (3)/(10)`

No matter the number of fractions.

`(1)/(2)*(3)/(5)*(1)/(20) = (3)/(200)`

The same happens with units

In this case, we have sec*(mb/sec). Simplifying the seconds, the answer will e in mb.

So

`(29 sec)/(2)*(60 mb)/(sec) = 870 mb`

The product is 870 mb.
