Question

Which is larger, 4 miles or 22,000 feet?
4 miles
They are equal.
22,000 feet

Answer 1

22,000ft is larger (not 4 miles)

Explanation:

Keep this in mind:

5,280ft = 1 mile

so since 5,280 is 1 mile we simply multiply!

5,280 x 4 = 21,120

22,000ft > 21,120ft(4 miles)

Answer 2

They are not equal. 22,000 feet is larger than 4 miles.

Remember, there’s 5,280 feet in 1 mile. If you multiply 5,280 by 4 miles, you get 21,120 feet.

22,000 is larger than 4 miles by approximately 880 feet.
