Question
Convert 75 miles into meters. (Use the conversion 1.0 km = 0.621 miles and use metric conversions for the rest of the conversions).
![**Conversion of Distance: Miles to Meters**
**Problem Statement:**
Convert 75 miles into meters, using the given conversions.
**Conversion Factor:**
1 kilometer (km) = 0.621 miles
**Instructions:**
- Apply the given conversion factor to transform miles into kilometers.
- Then convert the obtained result from kilometers to meters.
- Note: You do not need to input your units in your answer.
- Ensure the representation of your answer is with the correct number of significant figures.
**Conversion Steps:**
1. Start with the initial distance in miles.
2. Convert the miles to kilometers using the provided conversion factor.
3. Convert the kilometers to meters (1 km = 1000 meters).
**Input Box:**
The result will be input in the placeholder box provided below.
**Example Calculation (Keep for reference, do not include in final web content):**
\[ 75 \, \text{miles} \times \left( \frac{1 \, \text{km}}{0.621 \, \text{miles}} \right) = \text{distance in kilometers} \]
\[ \text{distance in kilometers} \times 1000 \, \text{meters/km} = \text{distance in meters} \]
**Answer Entry:**
Replace the blank with your answer after performing the calculation.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F42c9ca3c-cb39-47fb-a603-0de5ef67ab03%2Fbe6b122f-18ea-4359-b1ff-649699670ac7%2Fqiomd_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
