Question

A bridge connecting two cities separated by a lake has a length of 4.042 mi.Use the table of facts to find the length of the bridge in yards. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

we need to do a conversion:

$4.042mi\times\frac{1760yd}{1mi}=7113.92yd\approx7113.9$

Let's do another conversion:

$465.27in\times\frac{1ft}{12in}=38.7725\approx38.8ft$
