Ok for the life of me i can't remember how you get from say 15 miles per hour (15m/h) to 15mh-1?
The discussion clarifies the conversion between miles per hour (15 m/h) and its alternative notation (15 m h-1). It establishes that both expressions represent the same speed, emphasizing that dividing by the power of a quantity is equivalent to multiplying by its negative power. The mathematical principle illustrated is that mi/h can be expressed as mi h-1, and similarly, ft/s2 can be represented as ft s-2.
