If 1 mile = 1760 yards then,

1500 yards = (1500/1760) miles
1500 yards = 0,85 miles

Answer:

0.85 mile(rounded to nearest hundredth)

Explanation:

We have to convert 1500 yards into miles.

To convert 1500 yards into miles, we first need to know the relation between yards and miles.

So we have,


1 \:\text{mile}=1760\:\text{yards}

Now, to convert 1500 yards into miles, we need to know how many miles are there in 1 yard.

So, we have


1\:\text{yard}=(1)/(1760) \:\text{miles}


\implies1500 \:\text{yards}=(1500)/(1760) \:\text{mile}


\implies1500 \:\text{yards}=(150)/(176) \:\text{mile}


\implies1500 \:\text{yards}= (75)/(88)\:\text{mile}


\implies1500 \:\text{yards}= 0.85\:\text{mile}

Hence, 1500 yards is 0.85 mile, rounded to nearest hundredth.
