There are 5280 feet in a mile:

5280ft/mi

When using proportions to solve for unknown quantities, you need to keep the same units on the same side. This means keep "ft" on the top side and "mi" on the bottom side.

I would go with the second choice.

Answer:

0.682 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know or be able to find the conversion equality

1 mile = 5280 feet.

Then

3600 ft 1 mi

------------ * ------------ = 0.682 mile

1 5280 ft

subset to real numbers, and as you can see are not at all connected to the rest of numbers (and integers).

Irrational numbers are the subset of real numbers that are not at all connected to the rest of numbers.

The subsets of real numbers are natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers and irrational numbers.

Natural numbers are subset of whole numbers, which are subset of integers, which are subset of rational numbers. Hence, all of them are interconnected. The set of irrational numbers is the only subset of real numbers which is not associated with the rest.

For example:-

1 is a natural number, whole number, integer, rational number but not irrational number. On the other hand, $\sqrt{2}$ is an irrational number but none of the rest.
