Set up an equation such that the units will cancel
the last conversion factor is available on yahoo.
35 m /s x 60 s/min x 60 min/hr x 0.00062 mi /m =
78.12 mi / hr

Necessary conversion factors:
1 m = 100 cm
2.54 cm = 1 inch
3600 sec = 1 hour
12 inch = 1 foot
1 mile = 5280 feet
Set up an equation such that the units will cancel and you can solve your own question

35m/s
1m = 100cm
1 inch = 2.54cm
1 foot = 12 inches
1 mile = 5280 feet
1 mile = 0.01*2.54*12*5280 = 1609.344m
35m/s
= (35/1609.344) * 60 * 60
= 78.29 mi/hr
