First fill in the blank on the left side of the equation using one of the ratios. Then write your answer on the right side of the equation.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A biking track has a length of 3168 feet (ft).

We need to find the distance in miles.

We know that, 1 mile = 5280 foot

1 feet = (1/5280) mile

Now, we can find the distance in miles by multiplying 3168 by (1/5280).

$d=3168 \times \dfrac{1}{5280}\\\\=0.6\ \text{miles}$

So, the distance covered is 0.6 miles.
