Paula ran 3 1/4 kilometers Omar ran 4,200 meters who ran farther and by how much?

Answer 1

To compare the distances ran by Paula and Omar, we need to convert both distances to the same unit.

3 1/4 kilometers is equal to 3.25 kilometers. As 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters, we can convert kilometers to meters by multiplying by 1000.

3.25 kilometers * 1000 = 3250 meters

Omar ran 4200 meters.

Now we can compare the distances:
Omar - Paula = 4200 - 3250 = 950 meters

Omar ran farther than Paula by 950 meters.
