Question

Jennifer ran 2.8 mi. There are 1.61 kilometers in one mile. Convert the distance to kilometers. Round to the nearest tenth.​

Answer 1

Jennifer ran 4.5 kilometers (rounded to the nearest tenth).

To convert miles to kilometers, we can multiply the number of miles by the conversion factor of 1.61 kilometers per mile:

2.8 miles * 1.61 kilometers per mile = 4.508 kilometers

Rounding this to the nearest tenth gives us 4.5 kilometers.
