Calculation:  As per the given problem,  Consider the rate:  5 cm1 min  To convert minutes into hour, multiply the rate by a conversion factor.  In 1 hour, there are 60 minutes, so 60 min1 hour=1.  5 cm1 min=5 cm1 min⋅60 min1 hour [Multiply rate by conversion factor.]  =300 cm1 hour [Cancel out common units and simplify]  Therefore,  5 cm1 min=300 cm1 hour  Hence,  The equivalent rate of 5 cm1 min is 300 cm1 hour.
