Week 5 Converting Metric and Imperial with Unit Analysis

This class we learned how to turn a certain measurment into another. So we were able to convert metric units to Imperial and vice versa.

In this example it wanted me to convert 0.4miles into inches so what I did was change miles into feet and then feet into inches and to do so above I took miles and put it in the denominator as 1 mile and how many feet are in a mile? 5280 and how many inches are in a foot? 12. So with all the calculations and crossing things out it turns into 0.4 x 5280 x 12 which is 25344 and we wanted inches so that’s what we kept.
