Question

Mr. Gephart is traveling from his house to the history museum. How many meters will he travel to the museum? The distance from home to the history museum is six and seven-tenths kilometers.

Answer 1

Answer: 6700 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given, we are informed that Gephart is traveling from his house to the history museum and that the distance from home to the history museum is six and seven-tenths kilometers.

In order to know the distance in meters

that he will travel to the museum, we have to multiply the convert the distance given in kilometers to meters. This will be:

1000 meters = 1 kilometer

Therefore, 6 7/10km = (6 7/10 × 1000m)

= 6 7/10 × 1000

= 67/10 × 1000

= 67 × 100

= 6700 meters

He'll travel 6700 meters to the museum.
