0.78 miles / 1 = 4104 feet / 1 mile
Simplifying the fraction, we can add a multiplier of 1 to the numerator and denominator:
(4104 feet * 1/5280 feet) / (1 mile * 1/5280 feet) = 4104 / 5280
Finally, we can simplify this fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 24:
4104 ÷ 24 / 5280 ÷ 24 = 171 ÷ 220
