Answer: 5219 m or 5.219 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The distance from one end of park avenue to the other = 5.8 km
The distance walked by Ethan down park avenue =1,173 m
The distance he walked back to pick up the book he dropped = 592 m
The distance from the point where the book is dropped and the starting point= 1173m-592m=581 m
The distance he need to walk to before reaching the end of park avenue= 5.8km -581 m
Since 1 km = 1000 m, [tex]5.8\ km=5.8\times1000\ m=5800m[/tex]
Thus, [tex]5.8\ km-581\ m=5800\ m-581\ m=5219 m[/tex]
Hence, the distance he need to walk to before reaching the end of park avenue=5219 m or 5.219 km
