Find:
Length of whale in km
Computation:
We know that;
1 km = 1,000,000 mm
So,
Length of whale in km = 28,578 / 1,000,000
Length of whale in km = 0.028578 km
Answer:
The answer is 0.28578 km, and the conversion is below in the explanation.
Explanation:
28578 mm * (1 meter/1000 millimeters) * (1 kilometer/1000 meters)
The millimeter units will cancel out, then the meter units will cancel out, leaving you with 28578/1000, then divide again by 1000. The answer is 0.028578 km.
