Convert mile to mile

Learn how to convert 1 mile to mile step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (m i l e) = x (m i l e)

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

(m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (m i l e) = 1609.34721869444 (m e t e r) = 1609.34721869444 (m)

Right side: 1.0 (m i l e) = 1853.184 (m e t e r) = 1853.184 (m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (m i l e) = x (m i l e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1609.34721869444 \times (m e t e r) = x \times 1853.184 \times (m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1609.34721869444 \cdot (m) = x \cdot 1853.184 \cdot (m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1609.34721869444 \cdot (m) = x \times 1853.184 \times (m)

Conversion Equation

1609.34721869444 = x \times 1853.184

Switch sides

x \times 1853.184 = 1609.34721869444

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{1853.184})

x \times 1853.184 \times \frac{1.0}{1853.184} = 1609.34721869444 \times \frac{1.0}{1853.184}

Cancel

x \times 1853.184 \times \frac{1.0}{1853.184} = 1609.34721869444 \times \frac{1.0}{1853.184}

Simplify

x = \frac{1609.34721869444}{1853.184}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.8684227895 \approx 8.6842 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (m i l e) \approx 8.6842 \times 10^{- 1} (m i l e)
