Hello..! :)

Response:

Luis runs 16 km in five days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Luis goes around the athletics track 4 times a day and the track is 800 meters long. How many km does he travel in five days?


\sf \green \rightarrow{ \textsf{ \blue{800~m}}~ \blue\cdot~{\textsf{ \blue4}}} = \text{ \orange { \sf3~200~m}}

We carry out the respective conversion (from meters "m" to kilometers "km", as requested by the problem), knowing that:


\sf1~km = 1~000~m1 \: \: km=1000m \: \: 3~200 \cancel{m} \ast \binom { \: \: 1~km}{1~000~ \cancel{m}} = 3.2~km3 200 m

(In one day Luis travels 3.2 km)

Now, to determine how many meters it travels in five days we must multiply.


\sf \orange\rightarrow \red{3.2~\ast~5} = {{ \orange{16~km}}}

In conclusion we have that Luis travels 16 km in five days.

¿Doubts? On the comments. Greetings :D

Answer:

16 km

Step-by-step explanation:

If Luis runs 4 laps every day and the track measures 800 meters, then the number of meters Luis runs each day is:


\implies \sf Total \;meters \;run \;per \;day = 4 *800 = 3200 \;m

To find how many meters Luis runs in 5 days, multiply the number of days by the total meters run per day:


\implies \sf Total\; meters \;run\; in\; 5\; days = 5 * 3200 = 16000\; m


\boxed{\sf 1000\; m = 1\; km}

To convert meters to kilometers, divide the number of meters by 1000:


\implies \sf 16000 / 1000 = 16\; km
