Vocabularyconversion factor
The process of converting from one unit to another is called dimensional analysis, or unit analysis. To convert units, multiply by one or more conversion factors. A conversion factor is a ratio of two quantities that are equal but use different units.
For example, to convert inches to feet
you would use the ratio as a conversion factor.1 ft12 in.
Multiplying by a conversion factor is like multiplying by 1.
12 in.12 in.
1 ft1 ft
= = = 11 ft12 in.
The average American uses 580 pounds of paper per year. Find this rate in pounds per month, to the nearest tenth.
Additional Example 1: Using Conversion Factors to Solve Problems
Convert the rate 580 pounds per year to pounds per month.
580 lb 1 yr
1 yr 12 mo
580 lb 12 mo
48.3 lb per month
To convert the second amount in a rate, multiply by the conversion factor with that unit in the first quantity.
Divide 580 by 12.The average American uses 48.3 pounds of paper per month.

To convert the second amount in a rate, multiply by the conversion factor with that unit in the first quantity.
Additional Example 2: Problem Solving Application
A car traveled 60 miles on a road in 2 hours. Find this rate in feet per second.
1 Understand the Problem
The problem is stated in units of miles and hours. The question asks for the answer in units of feet and seconds. You will need to use several conversion factors.
List the important information:
• Feet to miles5280 ft
1 mi
• Hours to minutes
• Minutes to seconds1 min60 s
1 h60 min
You know the conversion factor that converts miles to feet. So multiply by each conversion factor separately, or simplify the problem and multiply by several conversion factors at once.
2 Make a Plan
Convert to miles per hour.

60 mi2 h
= (60÷2) mi(2÷2) h
= 30 mi1 h
Create a single conversion factor to convert hours directly to seconds:

Solve Continued3
30 • 5280 ft • 1 1 • 1 • 3600 s = 158,400 ft
3600 s= 44 ft
1 s
The car was traveling 44 feet per second.
Divide out like units.• •30 mi1 h

=
A rate of 44 ft/s is less than 50 ft/s. A rate of 60 miles in 2 hours is 30 mi/h or 0.5 mi/min.
4 Look Back
Since 0.5 mi/min is less than 3000 ft/60 s or 50 ft/s and 44 ft/s is less than 50 ft/s, then 44 ft/s is a reasonable answer.

A train traveled 180 miles on a railroad track in 4 hours. Find this rate in feet per second.

2 Make a Plan
You know the conversion factor that converts miles to feet. So multiply by each conversion factor separately, or simplify the problem and multiply by several conversion factors at once.
First, convert 180 miles in 4 hours into a unit rate.Solve3
180 mi4 h
= (180 ÷ 4) mi(4 ÷ 4) h
= 45 mi1 h

Solve Continued3
45 • 5280 ft • 1 1 • 1 • 3600 s = 237,600 ft
3600 s= 66 ft
1 s
The train was traveling 66 feet per second.
Divide out like units.• •45 mi1 h

=
A rate of 66 ft/s is more than 50 ft/s. A rate of 180 miles in 4 hours is 45 mi/h or 0.75 mi/min.
4 Look Back
Since 0.75 mi/min is more than 3000 ft/60 s or 50 ft/s and 66 ft/s is more than 50 ft/s, then 66 ft/s is a reasonable answer.
