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) = 8.15 \times 10^{3} (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 8.15 \times 10^{3} (m^{2})

Right side: 1.0 (s q u a r e m i l e) = 3434530.61987414 (s q u a r e m e t e r) = 3434530.61987414 (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 8.15 \times 10^{3} \times (s q u a r e m e t e r) = x \times 3434530.61987414 \times (s q u a r e m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 8.15 \times 10^{3} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \cdot 3434530.61987414 \cdot (m^{2})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 8.15 \times 10^{3} \cdot (m^{2}) = x \times 3434530.61987414 \times (m^{2})

Conversion Equation

8.15 \times 10^{3} = x \times 3434530.61987414

Switch sides

x \times 3434530.61987414 = 8.15 \times 10^{3}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{3434530.61987414})

x \times 3434530.61987414 \times \frac{1.0}{3434530.61987414} = 8.15 \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{3434530.61987414}

Cancel

x \times 3434530.61987414 \times \frac{1.0}{3434530.61987414} = 8.15 \times 10^{3} \times \frac{1.0}{3434530.61987414}

Simplify

x = \frac{8.15 \times 10^{3}}{3434530.61987414}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0023729589 \approx 2.373 \times 10^{- 3}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (f o o t b a l l f i e l d) \approx 2.373 \times 10^{- 3} (s q u a r e m i l e)
