1. **State the problem:** We need to find the total distance run by 5 children in both miles and kilometres. 2. **Given data:** - Myron ran 6 miles - Aston ran 2.5 miles - Raihan ran 8 km - Osama ran 4.8 km - Huxley ran 4 miles 3. **Formulas and conversions:** - To convert miles to kilometres: $$\text{km} = \text{miles} \times 1.60934$$ - To convert kilometres to miles: $$\text{miles} = \text{km} \times 0.621371$$ 4. **Calculate total distance in miles:** - First, convert Raihan's and Osama's distances from km to miles: $$8 \times 0.621371 = 4.970968$$ $$4.8 \times 0.621371 = 2.982581$$ - Sum all miles: $$6 + 2.5 + 4.970968 + 2.982581 + 4 = 20.453549$$ 5. **Calculate total distance in kilometres:** - Convert Myron's, Aston's, and Huxley's distances from miles to km: $$6 \times 1.60934 = 9.65604$$ $$2.5 \times 1.60934 = 4.02335$$ $$4 \times 1.60934 = 6.43736$$ - Sum all kilometres: $$9.65604 + 4.02335 + 8 + 4.8 + 6.43736 = 32.91675$$ 6. **Final answers:** - Total distance in miles: **20.45 miles** (rounded to 2 decimal places) - Total distance in kilometres: **32.92 km** (rounded to 2 decimal places)
