How many meters will a person run during a 5-mile race?
Conversion factors: 1 mile = 1.6 kilometers; 1,000 meters = 1 kilometer.
3,125 m
31 m
8 m
8,000 m
A 5-mile race is approximately equal to 8 kilometers.
Using the conversion factor of 1 kilometer = 1,000 meters, we can calculate the total distance in meters:
8 kilometers = 8 x 1,000 meters = 8,000 meters
Therefore, a person would run 8,000 meters during a 5-mile race.
To convert miles to meters, we can use the conversion factor 1 mile = 1.6 kilometers.
First, let's convert 5 miles to kilometers.
5 miles = 5 * 1.6 kilometers = 8 kilometers.
Next, let's convert kilometers to meters.
1 kilometer = 1,000 meters.
8 kilometers = 8 * 1,000 meters = 8,000 meters.
Therefore, a person will run 8,000 meters during a 5-mile race.
