Identify the given quantity and the units to convert: 45 miles per hour (mi/h) needs to be converted to kilometers per hour (km/h).
Recall the conversion factor between miles and kilometers: 1 mile = 1.609 kilometers.
Set up the conversion by multiplying the given speed by the conversion factor to cancel out miles and introduce kilometers: \(45 \ \text{mi/h} \times \frac{1.609 \ \text{km}}{1 \ \text{mi}}\).
Perform the multiplication of the numerical values (without calculating the final number here) to find the speed in km/h: \(45 \times 1.609\) km/h.
Interpret the result as the speed in kilometers per hour, which will be the correct converted value.
