Answer:
1.7 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Mark runs back and forth on a football field for a total of 3000 yards.
Since we know that 1 mile equals to 1760 yards. To find the number of miles Mark ran we will divide 3000 yards by number of yards in one mile (1760).
[tex]\text{ Mark ran}=\frac{3000\text{ yards}}{1760\frac{\text{yards}}{\text{mile}}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{ Mark ran}=\frac{3000\text{ yards}}{1760}\times \frac{\text{miles}}{\ext{yards}}[/tex]
After cancelling out yards from numerator and denominator we will get,
[tex]\text{ Mark ran}=\frac{3000}{1760} \text { miles}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{ Mark ran}=1.7045454545454545\text{ miles}}\approx 1.7\text { miles}}[/tex]
Therefore, Mark ran 1.7 miles on the football field.
