Best Answer

Either express the half of a mile in kilometers; or the half of a kilometer in miles.

For example, 1 mile is 5280 ft = 1.609km. So you would take half of this, which is about 0.8km. You can see that this is greater than 0.5km, so half a mile is further than half a kilometer.

You are converting one expression of units to their equivalent in another set of units.
