Answer:

4.3 miles

Explanation:

We are given;

Distance of 22,704 feet

We are required to determine the number of miles in 22,704 feet

• To convert one unit to another we use conversion factors
• Therefore, we need to know the suitable conversion factor.
• That is, 1 mile/5,280 feet
• Thus, to determine the number of miles we multiply the number of feet with the conversion factor.

= 22,704 feet × 1 mile/5,280 feet

= 4.3 miles

Therefore, there are 4.3 miles in 22,704 feet
