Answer:

7500 meters

Explanation:

Isabella walked 2 × 2.5 km = 5 km. Together, they walked ...

2.5 km + 5 km = 7.5 km = 7.5×1000 m = 7500 m

Cole and Isabella walked 7500 meters altogether.

_____

"kilo-" is a prefix meaning "one thousand". So one kilometer is 1000 meters. Then 7.5 kilometers is 7.5 times 1000 meters, or 7500 meters.
