Footballs and miles

We know

1 mile = 63,360 in

10 in = 1 football

Then, "how many footballs would it take to make a mile?" is the same as asking "how many footballs would it take to make 63360 in?"

In order to find the answer we just divide


(63,360)/(10)=6,336

Then it takes 6,336 footballs to make a miles laid end to end
