Question

I just want to solve completly full explanation.

Answer 1

Sam,

 

5/86 of 12756000 km means multiply the Earth's diameter by 5/86:

 

5/86 × 12756000 = 741628.  (This was rounded to the nearest whole number.)

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

Answer 2

Sam, the word "of" means to multiply.

 

12756000(5/86) = 741628 km
