Cancel the mile and kilometer units. Multiply 8 by 1.61, then multiply by 1000.
The correct option is (B).
<h3>What is fraction?</h3>
A fraction is a part of a whole. The number is expressed as a quotient, in which the numerator is divided by the denominator.
Given:
8 miles / 1 × 1.61 km / 1 mile × 1000 meters / 1km
Now, the unit Km and miles will be cancel out
=8 miles / 1 × 1.61 km / 1 mile × 1000 meters / 1km
= (8 / 1 ) × (1.61 / 1 ) × (1000 meters / 1)
= 8 × 1.61 × 1000 meters
Now, Multiply 8 by 1.61, then by 1000
=8 × 1.61 × 1000 meters
= 12,880 meters
