Question

Use the fact that 1 kilometer = 0.62 miles to convert 3,070 meters to miles.

Answer 1

Answer: 1.90 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The conversion rate for meters to kilometers is 1 meter for 0.001 kilometers. Using this rate you can do, $3070m*\frac{0.001km}{1m}$. The m units cancel and you're left with 3.07km. Since we are given the conversion rate of 1 kilometer = 0.62 miles, we can do, $3.07km*\frac{0.62mi}{1km}$. again the km units cancel and you're left with 1.9034 mi. Rounded to the nearest hundredth to get 1.90.
