Convert mile / (hour • minute) to foot / square hour

Learn how to convert 1 mile / (hour • minute) to foot / square hour step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{h o u r \times m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{f o o t}{s q u a r e h o u r})

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{h o u r \times m i n u t e}) = \frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = \frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{f o o t}{s q u a r e h o u r}) = \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{7}} (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{7}} (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{h o u r \times m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{f o o t}{s q u a r e h o u r})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d}) = x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{7}} \times (\frac{m e t e r}{s q u a r e s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \cdot \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{7}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} \cdot (\frac{m}{s^{2}}) = x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{7}} \times (\frac{m}{s^{2}})

Conversion Equation

\frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} = x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{7}}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

\frac{1609.344}{2.16 \times 10^{5}} = x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times {10^{7}}^{10^{2}}}

Simplify

\frac{1609.344}{2.16} = x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{2}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{2}} = \frac{1609.344}{2.16}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.296 \times 10^{2}}{0.3048})

x \times \frac{0.3048}{1.296 \times 10^{2}} \times \frac{1.296 \times 10^{2}}{0.3048} = \frac{1609.344}{2.16} \times \frac{1.296 \times 10^{2}}{0.3048}

Cancel

x \times \frac{0.3048 \times 1.296 \times 10^{2}}{1.296 \times 10^{2} \times 0.3048} = \frac{1609.344 \times 1.296 \times 10^{2}}{2.16 \times 0.3048}

Simplify

x = \frac{1609.344 \times 1.296 \times 10^{2}}{2.16 \times 0.3048}

Solve

x

x = 316800 = 3.168 \times 10^{5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{m i l e}{h o u r \times m i n u t e}) = 3.168 \times 10^{5} (\frac{f o o t}{s q u a r e h o u r})
