1 answer

To convert kilometers to miles, we use the conversion ratio of 1 km = 0.62 miles.

Given that the airplane travels at a speed of 900 km per hour, we can calculate its speed in miles per hour by multiplying 900 km by the conversion ratio:

900 km * 0.62 miles/km = 558 miles

Therefore, the airplane's speed is approximately 558 miles per hour.
