Question

If you jog 4 times around a track that is 700 meters long how many miles have you covered?

Answer 1

Explanation:

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

The track is 700 meters, or about 1/2 a mile.

Multiply 700 by 4 to find the meters you ran:

700 * 4 = 2800

Divide this by 1609:

2800 / 1609 = 1.74 miles

So, you approximately covered 1.74 miles.

Let me know if this is correct! It may be incorrect if your teacher told you '1600 m = 1 mil', or another conversion factor. I am just going off of memory here!
