Set up the math problem. But don’t do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression. Also be sure you’re answering clues all the correct the units symbols.

Answer:

Length = 681 grams / (44.5 grams / kilometers) = (681 / 44.5) kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter is there to throw us off, so ignore that. There is 681 grams of wire, and since there is 44.5 grams of copper per km of wire, and we want to know how many kilometers of wire makes 681 grams, the equation would be X*44.5 = 681, or X = 681/44.5


Also quora's censoring system is terrible i can't even say kilometers by adding the letter s after "km"
