Convert football field to square mile

Learn how to convert 1 football field to square mile step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) = x (s q u a r e m i l e)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(s q u a r e m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) = 5351.215104 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 5351.215104 (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (s q u a r e m i l e) = 3434290.937856 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 3434290.937856 (m^{2})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) = x (s q u a r e m i l e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 5351.215104 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 3434290.937856 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 5351.215104 \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 3434290.937856 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 5351.215104 \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 3434290.937856 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

5351.215104 = x \times 3434290.937856

Switch sides

x \times 3434290.937856 = 5351.215104

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3434290.937856})

x \times 3434290.937856 \times \frac{1.0}{3434290.937856} = 5351.215104 \times \frac{1.0}{3434290.937856}

Cancel

x \times 3434290.937856 \times \frac{1.0}{3434290.937856} = 5351.215104 \times \frac{1.0}{3434290.937856}

Simplify

x = \frac{5351.215104}{3434290.937856}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0015581717 \approx 1.5582 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) \approx 1.5582 \times 10^{- 3} (s q u a r e m i l e)
