    first step:turn on TI-83

    step 2:go to unit converter
    step 3 plug it in

    =====================
    Code:
    0-60mile in10.5s  * 1.606km  =       0-96.36 in 10.5s
                           mile
    
    
    113miles * 1606. m  =181.478km *       hr            = 50.41m/s
    h           mile         hr             3600s
    
    
    14miles  * galon    =    14miles   *1.606km = 22.484km = 5.940KM
      1gal       3.785L        3.785L      1mile      3.785L            L
    
    all answers are correct to 3 sig figs

    it really isn't that hard, I could have done it in the 5th grade, save for the fact that i would have neglected sig figs...

    I am too lazy to do it mentally, I use my Ti-83, it was like right next to em, so why not. I am sorry if it seems a bit ambiguous, assume there is a division line in the appropriate spaces.
