1 mile = 1.60934
So if you're trying to figure out the rate in kilometers and know the rate in miles, what are you going to do?

thedj4jc · Answer

It says to simplify the kilometer to 1.6, if you have 100 MILES per then how would you find the kilometers?

anonymous · Answer

multiply kilo by miles

thedj4jc · Answer

Yes, so you'll multiply 1.6 by 100 and you get?

@thedj4JC

thedj4jc · Answer

To find the distance you multiply the rate times the time, your rate is 160 in kilometers and time is 3, so multiply 160 by 3 and you get?

anonymous · Answer

480

thedj4jc · Answer

Right!!

anonymous · Answer

so 480 would be the distance and the rate would be 160

thedj4jc · Answer

Yep!! :-)
