The distance from Aiden's house to the school is 2.5 miles. The distance from Steven's house to the school is 4,650 feet. Who lives closer to the school? Aiden or Steven? Use numbers and words to explain your answer. Pls Help me :c

Answer:

1 mile = 5280 feet, so 5280 x 2.5 = 13, 200 feet. 13,200 > 4650, so Aiden lived further. hope this helps :]

Steven lives closer. When you convert 2.5 miles into feet it equals 13,200 that is more than 4,650
