Final answer:
The distance between Manila and Bataan is 130,000 meters (130 kilometers multiplied by 1000 meters/kilometer) and 80.6 miles (130 kilometers multiplied by 0.62 miles/kilometer).
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer the question of finding the distance in meters and miles when the distance between Manila and Bataan is 130 kilometers, we can follow a simple unit conversion process.
(a) To convert kilometers to meters, we use the conversion factor that 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters. Therefore, the distance in meters is:
130 kilometers × 1000 meters/kilometer = 130,000 meters.
(b) To convert kilometers to miles, we use the given conversion factor that 1 kilometer is equal to 0.62 miles. So, the distance in miles is:
130 kilometers × 0.62 miles/kilometer = 80.6 miles.
