Question

What is the total number of centimeters Omar and Paula ran

Answer 1

First, we need to find the total number of meters each person ran.

Omar: 2.5 kilometers = 2500 meters
Paula: 3.2 kilometers = 3200 meters

Now, we convert the meters to centimeters:
1 meter = 100 centimeters

Total centimeters run by Omar = 2500 meters * 100 centimeters/meter = 250,000 centimeters
Total centimeters run by Paula = 3200 meters * 100 centimeters/meter = 320,000 centimeters

Adding the total number of centimeters run by Omar and Paula:
250,000 centimeters + 320,000 centimeters = 570,000 centimeters

Therefore, Omar and Paula ran a total of 570,000 centimeters.
