-First I googled the question: How many miles from coast to coast in the United States?
-The answer I found was about 3,000 miles from coast to coast. This is a close approximation.
-Then I asked how many kilometers in one mile? In one mile there are about 1.609 kilometers.
-All you have to do now is figure out how many of those (1.609) will go into 3,000.
I got about 1,864.5 kilometers. This is an approximation.
1 mile = 1.609 kilometers according to internet
Wrong way.You need to MULTIPLY 1.609 by 3000. That's 4227 km.
Response: The errors seem to be piling up on this one. 3,000 miles across is a good east to west approximation; the exact distance depends on which latitude you choose for your journey. More northerly is longer as Maine juts out eastward into the Atllantic, so Maine to L.A. California is about 3,150 miles. Go south and you cut the distance considerably- San Diego to Jacksonville is only 2,
CORRECTING THE FIRST TWO ANSWERS:
The person who wrote "wrong way" at the top was correct because you DO need to multiply 1.609 by 3000. But he (or she) made a mistake, it's 4827 km NOT 4227. If your getting confused with all these convertions go to

this websight dose the convertions for you.
CORRECTING THE CORRECTION TO THE FIRST TWO ANSWERS:
Correct information. But 3000 miles is an approximation - it has one significant figure. It is not appropriate to give the result of the multiplication to 4 sf. At best 4800 km.
Also, in "your getting confused", the correct word is "you're" - short for you are. Your is a possessive pronoun and means belonging to you.
