> just think of a kilometer as slightly more than 3/5ths of a mile.

I can confidently assure you that right about now there are a bunch of Europeans reading your message multiple times, trying to figure out what 3/5ths of a mile even means, asking themselves if this is satire.


It's the same ratio as 28 3/4 tsp to a cup.
It's approximately one kilometer.
