Given:

2 megabytes per second

Determine the rate per hour.

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 minutes = 1 hour

3600 seconds = 1 hour

Solution:

We can solve the given by multiplying 2 megabytes per second by 3600, since 1 hour has 3600 seconds.

= (2 megabytes/second)(3600 seconds/ 1 hour)

The unit seconds cancel, leaving behind the unit megabytes per hour.

= 7,200 megabytes / hour

Final answer: 7,200 megabytes/hour or 7,200 mbph
