The correct Answer is:
To find the speed of the postman in miles per hour from kilometers per hour, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given speed in kilometers per hour. The speed of the postman is given as 36 km/h. ### Step 2: Use the conversion factor from kilometers to miles. We know that 1 kilometer is equal to approximately 0.621 miles. ### Step 3: Multiply the speed in kilometers by the conversion factor. To convert 36 km/h to miles per hour, we multiply: \[ \text{Speed in miles per hour} = \text{Speed in kilometers per hour} \times \text{Conversion factor} \] \[ \text{Speed in miles per hour} = 36 \, \text{km/h} \times 0.621 \, \text{miles/km} \] ### Step 4: Perform the multiplication. Calculating the above: \[ 36 \times 0.621 = 22.356 \] ### Step 5: Round the result to two decimal places. Rounding 22.356 gives us approximately: \[ 22.37 \, \text{miles/h} \] ### Final Answer: The speed of the postman is approximately **22.37 miles per hour**. ---
