Math Problem Statement
Convert all the distances to a single unit
Solution
To convert all the distances to a single unit, let's choose feet as the common unit for uniform comparison. We will convert miles and inches to feet, as some distances are already given in feet.
Conversion Factors:
- 1 mile = 5280 feet
- 1 inch = 1/12 feet
Let's convert each distance to feet:
-
Yellowstone:
- Feet: 5280 feet
- Inches: 1200 inches to feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
-
Denver:
- Miles: 1 mile to feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
-
Austin:
- Feet: 144 feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
-
Branson:
- Feet: 1200 feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
-
Outer Banks:
- Feet: 386 feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
-
New York City:
- Inches: 600 inches to feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
-
Maine:
- Miles: 2 miles to feet
- Total Distance in Feet:
Summary of Distances in Feet:
City | Distance in Feet |
---|---|
Yellowstone | 5380 |
Denver | 5280 |
Austin | 144 |
Branson | 1200 |
Outer Banks | 386 |
New York City | 50 |
Maine | 10560 |
