Question

Suppose that a particular artillery piece has a range of R=9240 yards. Find the range in miles

Answer 1

5.25[mile]

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that the yard is a measure of length of the imperial system and that a Mile is also a unit of length of that system.

Therefore we must use a conversion factor that relates the yard to the mile.

`9240 [yard]*[(0,000568182miles)/(1yard) ]=5.25[miles]`
