Conversion factor miles to km

1"mile" =1.60934km

So 15000 "miles"=15000xx1.60934km=24140.1km

In 1 year motor cycle is driven 24140.1km

So in 5 year motor cycle is driven 24140.1xx5km=120700.5km

As 9.5g CO is produced for 1km journey,

So in 5 year motor cycle will produce 120700.5xx9.5g CO.

Conversion factor gram to pound is

1g =0.00220462" pound"

So the amount of CO generated in 5 years is

120700.5xx9.5xx0.00220462" pound"~~2527.94" pound"
