1 kilometer is equivalent to 0.62 miles. To find how many miles are 8.045 kilometers, we can use the next proportion:
[tex]\frac{1\text{ km}}{8.045\text{ km}}=\frac{0.62\text{ mi}}{x\text{ mi}}[/tex]Solving for x,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1\cdot x=0.62\cdot8.045 \\ x=5\text{ miles} \end{gathered}[/tex]Another way to solve this, is the next one:
[tex]8.045\text{ km}\cdot\frac{0.62\text{ miles}}{1\text{ km}}=5\text{ miles}[/tex]Danny ran 5 miles.
