Answer:
Conversion gives 42,107 km in total
Explanation:
A marathon covers 26 miles and 285 yards.
If 1 kilometer is 0.6214 miles, then how many kilometers are 26 miles, then:
1 km = 0.6214 miles
X = 26 miles
X = 41,841 km
Now if 1 yard is 36 inches, how many inches is 285 yards?
1 yard = 36 inches
285 yards = X
X = 10260 inches
If an inch is equal to 2.54 cm, how many centimeters are 10260 inches?
1 inch = 2.54 cm
10260 cm = X
X = 26060.4 cm
And 26060.4 cm is 0.260604 km
Finally, the sum of the distance would be:
41.841 km + 0.260604 km = 42.107 km
