Nick's needs to walk 2,085 feet more to get to the library.

Given:

<em>1 mile</em> = 5,280 feet

Distance from Nick's school to his house = 3195 feet

Recall,

Nick’s house is between his school and the library, which is one mile apart

So,

<em>Distance to work to the library from Nick's house = 1 mile - Distance from Nick's school to his house</em>

= 5,280 feet - 3,195 feet

= 2,085 feet

Therefore,

Nick's needs to walk 2,085 feet more to get to the library.
