Question

2 james is training for a race on a track that is 1 mile around. during his warm - up, he runs \\(\frac{2}{3}\\) of a mile. how far does james run during his warm - up?
a. 1,760 feet
b. 1,320 feet
c. 2,640 yards
d. 3,520 yards

Explanation:

Step1: Recall mile to feet conversion

1 mile = 5280 feet

Step2: Calculate ⅓ of a mile in feet

$\frac{1}{3} \times 5280 = 1760$ feet

Step3: Verify yard conversion (optional check)

1 mile = 1760 yards, $\frac{1}{3} \times 1760 \approx 586.67$ yards, which does not match yard options.

Answer:

A. 1,760 Feet
