Answer:

1336miles.

Explanation:

From the question we are told that;

1km represents 0.62miles

1km = 0.62miles

We are to express 2155kilometers in miles.

2155km = x miles

Find x:

Divide both equations;

1/2155 = 0.62/x

Cross multiply;

1 * x = 2155 * 0.62

x = 1,336.1miles

Hence the correct option is 1336miles.
