Answer:

5,280

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mile=1,609.34 metres

1 foot=0.3048 metres

To answer the question "How many times longer is one mile than one foot?", we need to divide 1,609.34 by 0.3048

1,609.34 รท 0.3048=5,279.98687664

You round 5,279.98687664 to the nearest ten and you get your result: 5,280
