    1.6 km = 1 miles.

    384,400 km = x miles

    Cross multiply

    1.6 * x = 384,400

    Divide by 1.6

    1.6*x/1.6 = 384400 / 1.6

    x = 240,250

    Round to the nearest 100

    x = 240,300 rounded to the nearest 100

    1 km = 0.621371 miles

    1 km = 0.621371 miles

    384, 400 km = ?

    cross multiply to get the miles value of 384,400 km

    Distance in miles = 384,400 * 0.621371

    Distance in miles = 238855.0124 miles

    The nearest hundred miles is gotten when you locate the hundred value. The value start from the second 8 value upward. The closest hundred mile of 855 is 900 since 855 is more closer to 900 than 800.

    Rounding to the nearest hundred miles = 238900 miles
