Answer:

25000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

A pilot wanted to know about how many kilometers he flew on his last 3 flights.

Rounding up to the nearest thousands

From NYC to London, he flew 5,572 km.

Approximately to the nearest thousands = 6,000km

From London to Beijing, he flew 8,147 km.

Approximately to the nearest thousands = 8000 km

He flew 10,996 km from Beijing back to NYC.

Approximately to the nearest thousands = 11,000km

The sum of the distance is

= 6000km + 8000km + 11000km

= 25000 km

The pilot flew 25000km
