2.50 miles is equal to 4026 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is known that 1000 m =1 km and 1 km = 0.621 miles. So first we have to convert miles to km and then to metre as follows.

As 1 km = 0.621 miles, then


\text { 1 miles }=(1)/(0.621) \mathrm{km}

So, 2.50 miles will be equal to


2.50 \text { miles }=(2.50)/(0.621) \mathrm{km}=4.026 \mathrm{km}

Then, in order to get the answer in meters, we have to convert this km to meter by the conversion of 1000 m =1 km. So,


1 \mathrm{km}=1000 \mathrm{m}

Thereby,


4.026 \mathrm{km}=4026 \mathrm{m}
