meters

Answer 1

Answer is in Step-by-step explanation.

Explanation:

1 kilometer equals 1000 meters.

When we use this formula, we can solve this problem.

8 kilometers = ?,??? meters.

Since 1 km x 8 km = 8 km, we multiply 1,000 by 8.

1 x 8 = 8, then add 3 0's, 8,000 meters.

8 kilometers = 8,000 meters

Then we add 500 meters.

8,000 + 500 = 8,500 meters.

2 kilometers = ?,??? meters.

1 km x 2 km = 2 km, we multiply 1,000 by 2.

1 x 2 = 2 and then add 3 zeroes, 2,000.

2 kilometers = 2,000 meters.

We add the meters to 8,500 meters.

8,500 + 2,000 = 10,500 meters.

10,500 meters is the total distance in Meters, that he has traveled.

Best of Luck to you.
