<span>We are going to use the fact that 1cm = 0.00001km to convert 2.1cm/year to 0.000021km/year. Now, since Time = Distance/Velocity, we replace the values from our problem to get:  Time = 519km/ (0.000021km/year) which is equal to 24714285.71 years. We conclude that Los Angles will be directly west to San Francisco in a little less than 25 million years.</span>
