Explanation:

To help solve this question we will put it into a ratio:

MILES:KM

5 :8 This ratio shows that 5 miles equals 8km.

47.5 :76 We can put 76 on the km side because we are told that in

in the question. Lets find out how many times 8 was

multiplied to equal 76. 76 divided by 8=9.5 Because 8 was

multiplied by 9.5 we shall multiply 5km by 9.5 5x9.5=47.5

Therefore 76km is equal to 47.5miles.
