The students were actually able to collect 2.25 × 105 pennies for the shelter. A local reporter is writing an article about the success of the drive. He plans to claim that the school's collected pennies, if laid side by side in a straight line without overlapping, would extend from the doors of Valley Stream Central across town to the animal shelter 5 km away. Explain how to use the results of the school's "penny drive" and the information given below to determine whether the reporter's statement is true. (Note: The diameter of one penny is approximately 19 mm, and 1 mm = 1 × 10–6 km.)
