The range of a particular artillery piece in miles, which has a range r of 8260 yards is 4.7 miles (approximately).
It is given in the question that 1 mile is equal to 5280 ft and 1 yard is equal to 3 ft.
Hence, according to the question,
1 yard = 3ft
1/3 yard = 1 ft
Hence,
5280 ft = 1/3 * 5280 yards
5280 ft = 1760 yards
As 1 mile = 5280 ft
So,
1 mile = 1760 yards
Hence,
1/1760 mile = 1 yard
We have to find the range of 8260 yards in miles.
Hence,
8260*1/1760 miles = 8260 yards
8260 yards ≈ 4.69 miles ≈ 4.7 miles
8260 yards ≈ 4.7 miles
