----
25 (miles/hour)
------
= (25*1 *1)(miles/hour)(1*0.000621*3600)(meters/second)
-----
= (25/2.2356)(meters/second)
-----
= 11.18 (meters/second)
==================================
To km/h
25(miles/hour)(1 km/0.621 mile)
---------
= (25*1)/(1/0.621)(km/hour)
------
= 40.257 (km/hr)
===================
