How many feet are in one mile?

1 answer

To determine how many feet are in one mile using the data provided in the table, we can take one of the entries. For example, from the first row:

  • 5 miles = 26,400 feet

To find the number of feet in one mile, we can divide the total number of feet by the number of miles:

\[ \text{Feet per mile} = \frac{26,400 \text{ feet}}{5 \text{ miles}} = 5,280 \text{ feet/mile} \]

So, there are 5,280 feet in one mile.
