Transcript text: What number of feet is equivalent to 955.48 m ? Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.
Solution
Solution Steps
To convert meters to feet, use the conversion factor where 1 meter is approximately 3.28084 feet. Multiply the given number of meters by this factor and round the result to the nearest thousandth.
Step 1: Conversion Factor
To convert meters to feet, we use the conversion factor:
\[
1 \, \text{m} \approx 3.28084 \, \text{ft}
\]
Step 2: Calculate Feet
Given \( 955.48 \, \text{m} \), we calculate the equivalent in feet:
\[
\text{feet} = 955.48 \, \text{m} \times 3.28084 \, \text{ft/m}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
\text{feet} \approx 3134.7770032 \, \text{ft}
\]
Step 3: Rounding
We round the result to the nearest thousandth:
\[
\text{rounded feet} = 3134.777
\]
