Question:
How many tons are equal to 36,000 pounds?
Answer:
<h2><u><em>
18 tons </em></u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>To convert a pound measurement to a ton measurement, divide the weight by the conversion ratio.</em>
<em />
<em>Since one ton is equal to 2,000 pounds, you can use this simple formula to convert:</em>
<em />
<em>tons = pounds ÷ 2,000</em>
<em>The weight in tons is equal to the pounds divided by 2,000.</em>
<em />
<em>And you could multiply 2,000 by 18 and get the answer 36,000</em>
<em />
<em />
Hope This Helps you!
Have an Amazing day!

I think this problem gave the data for the radius of earth so that we will know the conversion ratio between statute miles and nautical miles. However, you can simply search that. There are 1.15 statute miles in 1 nautical mile. Hence,
Distance in nautical miles = <span>884884 statute miles * 1 nautical mile/1.15 statute miles
<em>Distance =769,464.35 nautical miles</em></span>
