How Far Is That?

When Ms. Hoffman was in Slovakia, she took a long hike through the mountains. It was beautiful! She had to climb up very high and then back down. It was very exhausting.

Long hike up the mountains

I made it to the top!!


When she was done, she knew that she had walked about 20 kilometers (km). In Europe, they use km to measure distance. But Ms. Hoffman is used to measuring in miles. She wants to know how far she went in miles!

How many miles is equal to 20 km?

You will need this information: 1 mile equals 0.6 km.
