Well, "1 mile"-=1.609*km1 mile1.609km

Explanation:

And so we got....

65.0*"mile"*hr^-1xx1.609*km*"mile"^-1=104.6*km*"hour"^-165.0milehr1×1.609kmmile1=104.6kmhour1

And further....104.6*km*"hour"^-1-=104.6kmhour1

(104.6*km)/(cancel"hour"xx60*cancel"minutes"*cancel"hour"^(-1)xx60*s*cancel"minute"^-1)=

=0.029*km*s^-1...confused yet?

0.03 km/sec

Explanation:

1 mile is 1.609 km.

So 65 miles is 65 x 1.609 = 104.585 km.

And an hour is 3600 seconds.

So, you have 104.585 km per 3600 seconds, or 104.585 / 3600 = 0.03 km per sec.
