Express as km using decimals.
(a) 8 m
(b) 88 m
(c) 8888 m
(d) 70 km 5 m

Solution:

We know that 1 km = 1000 m. To convert m into km, we will divide by 1000 and express it as decimals.

(a) 8 m

8 / 1000 = 0.008 km

(b) 88 m

88 / 1000 = 0.088 km

(c) 8888 m

8888 / 1000 = 8.888 km

(d) 70 km 5 m

(70 × 1000 + 5) / 1000 = 70005 / 1000 = 70.005 km
