Question
Suzie the slug is travelling at a speed of 0.45 millimeters per hour. Calculate her speed in meters per second and feet per minute. You must show your work and you may only use the following conversion factors: 1 hr 60 min, 1 min =1 m, 1000 m 1 km, 2.54 cm 1 inch, 12 inches 1 ft. 60 sec, 1000 mm 1 m, 100 cm
The answer I got is 2.46 x 10^-5 feet/min. Am I correct?

0.45 mm/hr * 1m/1000mm * 1hr/3600s = 1.25 * 10^-7 m/s
0.45 mm/hr * 1in/25.4mm * 1ft/12in * 1hr/60min = 2.46 * 10^-5 ft/min
0.45 mm/hr * 1in/25.4mm * 1ft/12in * 1hr/60min = 2.46 * 10^-5 ft/min
