Question

The distance from jason's house to school is 0.5 kilometer. What is this distance in meters. (someone reply asap, also I need to show my work so please tell me how you solved it) :)

Answer 1

500

Explanation:

multiply the kilometer amount you have by 1000 to get the amount in meters eg 1km=1000 meters so 0.5×100=500

Answer 2

Answer: 500 m

Explanation:

0.5 km * 1000 m / 1 km

The km cancels out and you are left with 0.5*1000 m which gives you 500 m
