Answer:
Distance=3.1 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Determine how many meters make a mile
The conversion rate expression is;
1 mile=1.60934 kilometers
Step 2: Convert 5 km to miles
Using the expression below;
Distance in miles=distance in kilometers/1.60934
where;
distance in kilometers=5 km
replacing;
Distance in miles=5/1.60934
Distance in miles=3.10686 miles
Step 3: Round off to nearest tenth of a mile
Nearest tenth of a mile=1/10=0.1 , the same as rounding of to the nearest 1 decimal place
Distance 3.10686 miles rounded off to 1 decimal place=3.1 miles
Distance=3.1 miles
