How far does a runner run (in kilometers) in a 1,000-meter race?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Correct Answer: A (1 km)
Rationale:
1. 1 km = 1000 meters, so a runner runs 1000 meters in a 1000-meter race.
2. Kilometers are a larger unit than meters, so converting 1000 meters to kilometers gives 1 km.
Summary:
- Choice B (0.10 km) is incorrect as it is equivalent to 100 meters, not 1000 meters.
- Choice C (3 km) is incorrect as it is too far, the race is only 1000 meters.
- Choice D (1/2 km) is incorrect as it is only 500 meters, not the full distance of 1000 meters in the race.
