Question

Wilbur runs 3.2 km every morning how many feet are in 3.2 km given that 1 mile = 1.609 km and 1 mile = 5,280

Answer 1

10,500 ft

Explanation:

Answer 2

1.609/5280 = 3.2/x....1.609 km to 5380 ft = 3.2 km to x ft
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(1.609)(x) = (5280)(3.2)
1.609x = 16896
x = 16896/1.609
x = 10,500 ft <===
