How to Convert Miles to Inches
Example: How many inches are equivalent to 76.02 miles?
As;
1 miles = 63360 inches
76.02 miles = Y inches
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 76.02 times 63360 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 76.02 * 63360 / 1 = 4816627.2 inches
Answer is: 4816627.2 inches are equivalent to 76.02 miles.
