How do you convert 15 km to miles?

Answer 1

Gianna Caruso

15 Km is approximately 9.321 miles

Given that 1 Km = 0.6214 miles approximately

Express this as the ratio of # ("miles")/("Kilometres")->m/(Km) ~~0.6214/1 #

But we need to change the 1 into 15

#color(green)(0.6214/1color(red)(xx1)" " =" " 0.6214/1color(red)(xx15/15)#

#9.321/15" " m/(Km)" "# to 3 decimal places

To convert kilometers to miles, you can use the conversion factor: [ 1 \text{ kilometer (km)} = 0.621371 \text{ miles} ]

Given: [ 15 \text{ km} \times 0.621371 = 9.320565 \text{ miles} ]

So, 15 km is approximately 9.32 miles.
