Problem 3

Select a different problem


2.54 cm = 1 in and 12 in = 1 ft

cm = in.


Example:

Convert: 3 miles to feet.
Note: 1 mi = 5280 ft. Divide both sides by 1 mi.

So click refresh (F5) which maintains equality.

Solution: click refresh (F5)

Note how the units of miles cancel out in the multiplication leaving d = 15840 ft

This can be solved using the graphing calculator at the bottom of the page:
First enter 3(5280/1) into the box to the right of Function f(x)=.
Then click on the Plot Graph button. The answer will appear below the box as f(x) = 15840.
