Answer:

'Kilometers' is the most appropriate unit to measure this distance.

Explanation:

The distance between the baseball stadium and the airport is
1.6* 10^6 centimeters.

(1.6* 10^6)cm = (16* 10^5)cm

Now, 10⁵ centimeters is equal to 1 kilometer.

That means,
(16* 10^5)cm = (16* 1)km= 16 km

So, 'Kilometers' is the most appropriate unit to measure this distance.
