Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Destin walked 2km

Jane walked 4000ft.

Let's write both of those in the same units.

The data given is:

1ft = 0.0003048km.

and 4000ft is 4000 times that:

4000ft = 4000*1ft = 4000*0.0003048km = 1.22km

Then if we add those, we get:

Total distance = 2km + 1.22km = 3.22km

So we can already discard option D.

Now, we know that:

1km = 0.6214 miles.

then 3.22 km is 3.22 times that amount:

3.22km = 3.22*1km = 3.22*(0.6214 mi) = 2 miles

The correct option is C.
