Question

A peregrine falcon can fly 322 kilometers per hour. Determine how many meters per hour can the falcon fly.

Answer 1

Given the speed of the falcon, simple conversion can be done.
Using the relation 1000 meters = 1 kilometer:

322 kilometers 1000 meters 322,000 meters
------------------- x -------------------- = ----------------------
1 hour 1 kilometer 1 hour

Therefore, 322 kilometers/hr = 322,000 meters/hr
