Answer: 1)2500 cm/sec

2)2+7/8 cm sec

3) I want you to try this on your own! I believe in you!

4)1,500,000 mL/s

5)13228.8 km/s

Explanation:

1) first convert 200 meters to centimeters: 20,000cm

So to find how many cm in 1 sec,

We do: 20,000/8

We get 2500cm/sec as our final answer.

2-5) you follow this pattern convert to the ideal measurement and then divide by ideal amount to find the answer. See above for example!
