Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 2788 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between New York City, New York and Los Angeles, California is approximately 4485 kilometers.

The given conversion rate is:

1 mile = 1.609 kilometers

or 1.609 km = 1 mile.

So, 1 km = $\frac{1}{1.609}$ miles

And 4485 km = $\frac{1}{1.609}*4485$ miles

= 2787.45 miles.

In nearest miles we can round this to 2788 miles.
