Take into account that any conversion factor can be written as a fraction in which you have the equivalence in the numerator and denominator.

b. 1 mile = 1.61 kilometer

By using the abbreviated form mi as mile and km as kiometer, you can write:


\frac{1mi}{1.61\operatorname{km}},\frac{1.61\operatorname{km}}{1mi}

c. 4 cups = 1 quart


\frac{4\text{cups}}{1qt},\frac{1qt}{4\text{cups}}
