1km=0.62 miles

Well, OK. My company never hosted anything, certainly
nothing with any benefit, so this scenario doesn't relate
very well to the real world. But here's the math:

(5 km) x (1 mile / 1.609344 km) = 3.106... mile

Rounded to the nearest tenth of a mile:

3.106... mile ===> 3.1 mile

Ramiro is 3/10 as tall as the flagpole. The flagpole is 5/9 as tall as the nearby tree. The tree is 32 2/5 feet tall. How tall i

$x-\ Ramiro's\ height\\
y-\ Flapole's\ height\\
z-\ nearby\ tree\\\\
x=\frac{3}{10}y\\
y=\frac{5}{9}z \\z=32\frac{2}{5}\\\\\y=\frac{5}{9}*32\frac{2}{5}=\frac{5}{9}*\frac{162}{5}=18\\\\
x=\frac{3}{10}*18=5,4\\\\
