Problem

John is planning a hiking trip, and he wants to determine the length of the trail he will be hiking in inches, feet, yards, and miles. The trail is 10,000 yards long. John knows that 1 yard equals 3 feet, 1 foot equals 12 inches, and 1 mile equals 1,760 yards. How long is the hiking trail in feet, inches, and miles?

2

Step

Start with the total distance in yards, which is 10,000 yards.

3

Step

Convert yards to feet:

10,000 yards \$\times\$ 3 feet per yard = 30,000 feet

4

Step

Convert feet to inches:

30,000 feet \$ \times \$ 12 inches per foot = 360,000 inches

5

Step

Convert yards to miles:

\$ (10,000 "yards") / (1,760 "yards per mile") = 5.68 "miles" \$

6

Step

So, the length of the hiking trail is approximately:

30,000 feet, 360,000 inches, 5.68 miles
