To answer this item, we need to utilize the appropriate the conversion factors and the dimensional analysis.
Our basis for solving is 1 kilometers. It is known that each kilometer is composed of 1000 meters.
(1 km) x (1000 m/1 km) = 1000 m
Next, we need to determine the number of centimeters. The conversion factor that can be used is 1 meter = 100 centimeters
(1000 m) x (100 cm/ 1 m) = 100,000 cm
Lastly, we use the given conversion factor to convert the centimeters to inches.
(100,000 cm) x (1 inch / 2.54 cm)
= 39,370.08 in
ANSWER: Each kilometer is composed of 39,370.08 inches
