Answer:

405.80

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know Carlos ran 21 miles per week, for 12 weeks....

That makes 21 mi/wk x 12 weeks = 252 miles.

Then we know each km is 0.621 mile.

So, we divide 252 miles by 0.621 mile/km to get= 405.80 km

Dividing miles by miles/km gives us the unit we want (km).

<u>There was a trap in this question,</u> because if instead of dividing the 252 miles by 0.621 you would have multiplied it, you would have gotten another answer listed... just not the right one. :-)
