On a caterpillars map all distances are marked in kilometers . The caterpillars map shows the distance between two milkweed plants is 4,012 milimeters what is the distance in kilometers

Respuesta :

Answer:

The distance in kilometers is 4012 ×[tex]10^{-6}[/tex] km.

Explanation:

We know that the conversion of 1 millimeters is equal to [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] meter. And then the conversion of 1 meter is equal to [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] km. Then the conversion of 1 millimeter to km will be

1 mm = [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] m

1 m = [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] km

So, 1 mm = [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]×[tex]10^{-3}[/tex] km = [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] km.

As here the the distance is 4012 mm, then the distance in km will be

4012 mm = 4012 ×[tex]10^{-6}[/tex] km.

So the distance is 4012 ×[tex]10^{-6}[/tex] km.
