Highways in Canada have speed limits of $100 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$. How does this compare with the 65 mi/h speed limit common in the United States?
Added by Stephen G.
Step 1
- 1 kilometer is equal to 0.621371 miles. - Therefore, 100 kilometers per hour is equal to 100 * 0.621371 = 62.1371 miles per hour. ** Show more…

Highways in Canada have speed limits of $100 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$. How does this compare with the $65 \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{h}$ speed limit common in the United States?
Pritesh R.
Many highways in the United States have a speed limit of $65 \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{h}$. (a) Is this speed greater than, less than, or equal to $65 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{h}$ ? Explain. (b) Find the speed limit in kilometers per hour that corresponds to $65 \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{h}$.
Predict/Calculate Many highways have a speed limit of 55 $\mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{h}$ . (a) Is this speed greater than, less than, or equal to 55 $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h} ?$ Explain. (b) Find the speed limit in $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}$ that corresponds to 55 $\mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{h}$ .
