If there are 60 seconds in 1 minute ,how many seconds are there in 5 minutes?
If there are 100centimetres in 1metre ,how many centimetres are there in 100m?
If there are 60minutes in an hour,how many hours does 240minutes give?
In 5 mins there will be 5x60 = 300seconds
In 100m there will be 100x100 = 10,000centimetres
If 1 hour = 60 minutes,240 minutes will give 240/60 = 4 hours.
Hope this helps.
