Example
Convert 300miles to kilometer(km)

300 miles = 482 700 m

1609
x 300
482700

482 700 m = 482.7 x m

= 482.7 km

Example
Convert 10 to
1m = 3.281 feet
=
1 = 10.76
10 = 10 x 10.76
=107.6
Or

10 = 10 x 10.76
= 107.6

Example
Convert 2 radians angle to sexagesimal form

180
Degree = 2 rad x d 𝑒𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑒=𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑛 ×
= 𝜋

Multiply the decimal by 60 1°= 60′ , 1′= 60′

0. x 60 = 35.4’ ′

Multiply remaining decimal by 60

0.4’ x 60 = 24”

Answer : 114 35’ 24”
