First, let's convert the measurements to a consistent unit, such as meters.

1 inch = 0.0254 meters (approximately)

1 foot = 0.3048 meters

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

1 kilometer = 1000 meters

Given measurements:

  • 20.6 cm
  • 49.5 in
  • 8.03 km

Converting to meters:

  • 20.6 cm = 20.6 / 100 = 0.206 meters
  • 49.5 in = 49.5 * 0.0254 = 1.2573 meters
  • 8.03 km = 8.03 * 1000 = 8030 meters

Now, add the converted measurements:

0.206 meters + 1.2573 meters + 8030 meters = 8031.4633 meters

Rounded to a reasonable number of decimal places, the sum of 20.6 cm, 49.5 in, and 8.03 km is approximately 8031.46 meters.
