1 1/4mi = ft, can someone explain this to me
skelet666 [1.2K]
First off, we'll convert the mixed fraction to "improper" and check about, keeping in mind that, there are 5280 feet in 1mile.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{4}~mi}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{4}~mi}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;feet&miles\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;5280&1\\&#10;f&\frac{5}{4}&#10;\end{array}\implies \cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{1}{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }\implies \cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{1}}{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{1}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{5280\cdot 5}{4}=f\implies 6600=f
