Answer:
8717 meters.
Explanation:
We need to know the conversion factors. We know that:
1 mile = 1609.34 meters
1 yard = 0.9144 meters
This means that:
It is convenient to leave the units we want at the end in the numerator so the ones in the denominator cancel out with the ones we want to remove, as will be seen in the next step.
We will convert first the miles, then the yards, and add them up.
So total distance is the sum of these, 8717 meters.
