In the land of Dardia, the basic unit of length is the Klem.

Question

There are 15 Klems in a Mlef and 7 Kloms in a Klem. The basic units of time are the same as ours. If Randy travels at 33 Mlefs per hour, what is the number of Kloms per second of his speed, expressed as a decimal to four places of accuracy?

Answer 1

It was given that 7 Klom = 1 Klem, and that 15 Klems = 1 Mlef

Thus, there are 7 Kloms per Klem x 15 Klems per Mlef; so, there are 105 Kloms per Mlef

 

33 Mlefs per hour x 105 Kloms per Mlef = 3465 Kloms per hour

 

in one hour, there are 60 seconds per minute x 60 minutes per hour = 3600 seconds

 

Therefore, 3465 Kloms per hour ÷ 3600 seconds per hour = 0.9625 Kloms per second
