Answer 1

We have to convert a magnitud in acres to square miles.

We know that 1 square mile = 640 acres.

Then, we can use this equivalency as a factor and calculate:

`2067795\text{ acre}\cdot(\frac{1mi^2}{640\text{ acre}})=(2067795)/(640)mi^2\approx3230.93mi^2`

Answer:

The Death Valley National Monument's area is 3230.93 square miles.
