1 mile = 1.60934 kilometers. So 5 miles ≈ 8.047 km.
Metric units are based on powers of ten and are widely used internationally, while imperial units such as feet, inches and miles are still common in a few countries, especially for road distances, height and construction.
Method: Convert input to meters first (base unit), then to each target unit. Example: 1 km = 1000 m; 1 mile = 1609.344 m; 1 foot = 0.3048 m.
Example: 5 km = 5000 m = 500,000 cm = 3.107 miles = 16,404 feet = 196,850 inches.
