To solve Part A, we need to convert both distances to the same unit. Since 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters, we can convert Paula's distance to meters:
Paula ran 3 1/4 kilometers = 3.25 kilometers = 3.25 * 1000 = 3250 meters
Comparing Omar's distance with Paula's in meters:
Omar ran 4200 meters
Paula ran 3250 meters
Omar ran 4200 - 3250 = 950 meters farther than Paula
Therefore, the correct answer for Part A is: Omar ran 950 meters farther than Paula.
To solve Part B, we need to add Omar and Paula's distances together and convert to centimeters:
4200 meters + 3250 meters = 7450 meters
7450 meters * 100 = 745000 centimeters
Therefore, the correct answer for Part B is: 745,000 centimeters.
Paula run 3 1/4 kilometers. Omar ran 4,200 meters
