Give an example of a situation where converting between units of measurement (e.g., length, temperature, mass) would be necessary. Describe the steps you would take to perform the conversion.

Example of Unit Conversion Scenario:

Imagine you're planning a road trip from the United States to Canada. You need to convert the speed limits from miles per hour (mph) to kilometers per hour (km/h) for accurate driving. Let's say the speed limit is 65 mph. To convert to km/h:

 

First, you know that 1 mile is approximately 1.60934 kilometers.

Multiply the speed limit (65 mph) by the conversion factor (1.60934) to get the speed in km/h: 65 * 1.60934 ≈ 104.6091 km/h.

Therefore, the speed limit in Canada would be approximately 104.61 km/h.
