Factor-Label Method

The purpose of the factor-label method is to convert units into other units Convert 34 cm into meters. 1) write given info 2)find a conversion factor 3)Put units in correct spot 4)Do the math 34 cm X 100 cm = 1 m =0.34 m

Convert 5.5 m into centimeters 5.5 mX= 550 cm Convert 36 in 2 into square feet. 36 in 2 XX = 0.25 ft 2 1 Need to do it twice because really (in x in)

Convert 55 mile per hour into feet per second. XX= Hour needs to go on top to cancel out the hour on the bottom
