a) 349.5 inches = 8.8773 meters
Solution : To convert inches to meters we must know the conversion factor between inches and meters.
1 inch = 0.0254 meter
[tex] (349.5 inches)\times \frac{(0.0254 meters)}{(1 inch)} [/tex]
Same units get cancel out , in the above step inches get cancel out and we will get meters.
[tex] (349.5)\times \frac{(0.0254 meters)}{(1)} [/tex]
8.8773 meters is the final answer.
b) 12.68 g/ mL = 12.68 Kg/L
We need to convert 12.68 g/mL to kg/L
We will use the conversion factor between g to Kg and mL to L.
1 kg = 1000 g
1 L = 1000 mL
[tex] (12.68\frac{g}{mL})\times \frac{(1 Kg)}{(1000g)}\times \frac{(1000 mL)}{(1L)} [/tex]
Similar units gets cancel out, in the above step 'g' and ' mL' gets cencel out and we will get kg/L.
[tex] (12.68)\times \frac{(1 Kg)}{(1000)}\times \frac{(1000)}{(1L)} [/tex]
12.68 Kg/L is the final answer.
