Answer:

42.1558 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 mile = 1,609 km

Then use this data as a conversion factor.

If we want to transform miles to kilometers then our conversion factor should be:

[tex]\frac{1,609\ km}{1\ miles}[/tex]

Now we must multiply the number of miles by this factori and thus we obtain the equivalent in kilometers

[tex]26.2*\frac{1,609\ km}{1\ miles} = 42.1558 km[/tex]
