    In some of the questions you might need to find out the speed/distance/time
    but the units are not the same. You need to convert the units to find what
    you’re looking for.

    g
    For example:

    A car travels 2 miles in 2 minutes. What’s the speed in mph?

    We need to convert minutes into hours!

    Units
    There are 60 minutes in an hour
    X 60

    Hours 60 Minutes

    ÷ 60
    So for our example, we will convert 2 minutes into hours by doing:

    2÷60 = 0.033

    So speed = distance ÷ time

    = 2 ÷ 0.033 = 60mph

    Convert these units by filling in the gaps. Think how many are in each unit…

    X __ X 1.6

    Km Metres Miles Km

    ÷ __ ÷ __

    X __ X __

    Days Hours Minutes Seconds

    ÷ __ ÷ __
