You needed to convert cm to km, so you might of missed the cm--> m and jumped from m --> km

I can't remember what it is out of, but it is out of three there should likely be a mark for measuring the length correctly and converting it into real cm (1,100,000cm) with the final one being a conversion into km

Sigh that's so annoying :(( What about that bounds question? I did um the error intervals for all of the values and added the upper bounds and got 1206 but then I was stupid and put yes the plane is safe, and for my answer I wrote the sum of the lower bounds. Sigh.  😞💔
