To begin, we can divide the number of miles by the number of minutes: 26.219/128 = 0.205 miles per minute. Next, we can use the proper conversion factor to give the number of kilometers per minute. Since 1 mile = 1.609 km, we can divide 0.205/1.609 to result in 0.127 kilometers per minute.

Answer: Find the speed by dividing 26.219 by 128. Convert miles to kilometers by multiplying by the conversion factor, with miles in the denominator and kilometers in the numerator.
