How far is 5K? dumb question i guess but how many miles is it? duh?

Answer 1

Five kilometers is 3.1 miles in distance.

Answer 2

5 Kilometers = 500,000 centimeters

[1 inch (by definition) = 2.54 centimeters]

(500,000cm)/(2.54cm/inch)=196,850.4 inches

[12 inches per foot and 5,280 feet per mile]

196,850.4/12=16404.2 feet

(16404.2 feet)/(5280feet/mile = 3.107 miles

or 3 miles 564 feet 2.39 inches

Answer 3

rounded off its 3.2 miles...  

Answer 4

1 mile = 1.6k appox

so take 5 divide by 1.6 = 3.13

5k = 3.13 miles

Answer 5

Next time you need to convert any unit of measure into another (of course of the same type: distance to distance, etc) use the google built in converter. Type in the search field your question and Google will calculate the conversion for you. In the case of 5 KM, you would enter this: 5 km in mi

result: 5 kilometers = 3.10685596 mi

You can round to match your need. In this case I'd go 3.11 mi.
