10,000*18
then, how many inches are in a foot? then times that by 10,000.
how many inches are in a mile? then times that by 10,000.

Can you tell me if this could be right? First take 10000x18=180,000
Second divide 180,000 by 12=15000
Third divide 15000by 5280= 2.84 which would round to 3
Please tell me if this could be right
