Here is the answer of the given question above. Since it is given that 4/5 mile is equal to 1/2 inch, what we will be looking for how many inches will there be for 1 mile. 5/5 mile = 1 mile. This is how it would look like. 1/2 inch.... x inch <span>----- = ----- </span> <span>..4/5 mile ...... 1 mile </span>Next, we cross multiply: (1/2)1 = (4/5)x Then divide both sides by 4/5. so we get x = 0.025 inch and that is 1/40 inch. Therefore, 1 mile is 1/40 inch. Hope this helps.
The length in kilometers is equal to the meters divided by 1,000. So, if you divide 3911.1 by 1,000 that equals 3.911. You move the decimal point to the left 3 times based on the number of zeros.
