how many meters are there in a mile?
one mile equals \boxed{} m.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify conversion factors

We know 1 mile = 5280 ft and 1 ft = 0.305 m. To find meters in a mile, multiply miles to feet, then feet to meters.

Step2: Calculate meters in a mile

Multiply the number of feet in a mile by meters per foot: $5280 \times 0.305$
First, calculate $5280 \times 0.305$:
$5280 \times 0.3 = 1584$
$5280 \times 0.005 = 26.4$
Add them: $1584 + 26.4 = 1610.4$

Answer:

1610.4
