Question

lake superior has a maximum depth of 1.333 thousand feet. there are 5,280 feet in one mile. how deep is lake superior in miles? round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. explain the answer

Answer 1

1,333 / 5,280 = 0.25 mile

Answer 2

1.333 *1000 feet * (1 mile/5280 feet)
= 1333/5280
= 0.2525 miles = 0.25

a little over a thousand feet is a little over a quarter of a mile

by the way the Marianas Trench is more like 30,000 feet deep or over five miles

Answer 3

1.333/5,280=

Answer 4

39.60

Answer 5

1333/5280 because you would take the depth and then divide it evenly among the 5280 to get the amount of miles and then your answer would come out as .25 if you round to the hundredth otherwise .252462121 Hope that helps!
