Answer by  MathTeacher (299)

One mile is equal to 5,280 feet. Since there are 3 feet in every yard, you can divide 5,280 by 3 and now you know that there are 1,760 yards in one mile. A yard is an English measurement that most closely resembles a meter, for those who favor the metric system.

 
+6

A yard is 3 feet long and a mile is 5280 feet long. Divide 5280 by 3 to get the number of yards in a mile which is 1760 yards.
