Multiply by (1000 meters / 1 km).
Then multiply by (1 hour / 3600 seconds).
Both of those fractions are equal to ' 1 ', because the top
and bottom numbers are equal, so the multiplications
won't change the VALUE of the 72 km/hr. They'll only
change the units.
(72 km/hour) · (1000 meters / 1 km) · (1 hour / 3600 seconds)
= (72 · 1000 / 3600) (km·meter·hour / hour·km·second)
= 20 meter/second
