9. Fran ran 4., kilometers. How many miles did Fran run (1 km = 0.62 mi). Set up a Proportion and solve using means and extremes. Esbribe una proporcion. Ejemplo: 0.62mi 1km

Answer 1

First we need to know the conversion

1 km -------- 0.62 mi

4km -------- x mi

We need to find x

`x=(4\cdot0.62)/(1)=(2.48)/(1)=2.48\text{ mi}`

4km -------- 2.48 mi

Fran ran 2.48 mi
