Answer:length of the east side=3.075km

Explanation:

The west side of Ms. Hammond's ranch=2.6 km long.

The east side of Ms. Hammond's ranch = 475 m longer than the west side

Therefore East side =2.6 km +475 m

Changing 2.6 kmto m becomes 2.6 x1000=2600m

East side =2600m +475 m=3075m

3075m to km becomes 3075m/1000 =3.075km
