Let’s check out your problem:

Abby knows that 1 mile is about 1.61 kilometers. She wants to write an equation she can use to convert any given distance in miles 
(m) to kilometers 
(k).
How should Abby write her equation?
Choose 1 answer:
(A) 
1.61=(k)/(m)
(B) 
1.61 m=k
(C) 
(k)/( 1.61)=m

Abby knows that 11 mile is about 11.6161 kilometers. She wants to write an equation she can use to convert any given distance in miles (m) (m) to kilometers (k) (k) .\newlineHow should Abby write her equation?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 1.61=km 1.61=\frac{k}{m} \newline(B) 1.61 m=k 1.61 \mathrm{~m}=k \newline(C) k1.61=m \frac{k}{1.61}=m

Q. Abby knows that 11 mile is about 11.6161 kilometers. She wants to write an equation she can use to convert any given distance in miles (m) (m) to kilometers (k) (k) .\newlineHow should Abby write her equation?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) 1.61=km 1.61=\frac{k}{m} \newline(B) 1.61 m=k 1.61 \mathrm{~m}=k \newline(C) k1.61=m \frac{k}{1.61}=m
  1. Convert Miles to Kilometers: Abby needs to convert miles to kilometers, so she needs a formula where she multiplies the miles by the conversion factor to get kilometers.
  2. Conversion Factor: The conversion factor from miles to kilometers is 11 mile = 1.611.61 kilometers. So, the equation should multiply the number of miles (mm) by 1.611.61 to get the number of kilometers (kk).
  3. Equation Verification: The correct equation should look like k=1.61×mk = 1.61 \times m. This matches with option (B) 1.61m=k1.61 m = k.
