Learning Goal:

To convert from the U$.$S$.$ Customary $($FPS$)$ system of units to the SI system of units.

A first$-$year engineering student records three separate measurements as $691lb,83\mathrm{.}5m\frac{i}{h},$ and $179({10}^6)f{t}^2.$ Suppose this engineering student has to turn in the results, but the professor only accepts results given in SI units.
