A truck driver travels 120 miles on Monday, 150 miles on Tuesday, and 100 miles on Wednesday. If 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometers, how many kilometers did the driver travel in total? Do not round

Answer 1

To find the total distance traveled by the truck driver in kilometers, we first add the miles traveled each day:

• Monday: 120 miles
• Tuesday: 150 miles
• Wednesday: 100 miles

Total miles traveled:

\[ 120 + 150 + 100 = 370 \text{ miles} \]

Now, we convert miles to kilometers using the conversion factor of 1 mile = 1.609 kilometers.

To convert the total miles to kilometers:

\[ 370 \text{ miles} \times 1.609 \text{ kilometers/mile} = 595.33 \text{ kilometers} \]

Thus, the total distance traveled by the truck driver in kilometers is:

\[ \text{Total distance} = 595.33 \text{ kilometers} \]
