Question

When Mrs. Kitley was staying in Europe, her hotel was 15,000 metersfrom the convention hall. How many kilometers would she have todrive to get from the convention hall back to her hotel?

Answer 1

1 kilometers ---> 1000 meters

x kilometers ---> 15000 meters

`\begin{gathered} x*1000=1*15000 \\ 1000x=15000 \\ (1000x)/(1000)=(15000)/(1000) \\ x=15 \end{gathered}`

answer: 15 kilometers
