The length of a walking trial is 2,104 meters.
1 meter=3.28 feet
What is the length of the trial to the nearest foot?

To find the length of the trial in feet, we need to convert the length from meters to feet using the conversion factor given: 1 meter = 3.28 feet.
So, to convert 2,104 meters to feet, we can multiply it by the conversion factor:
Length in feet = 2,104 meters * 3.28 feet/meter
Calculating this, we get:
Length in feet = 6,898.72 feet
However, we are looking for the length to the nearest foot. To round this number to the nearest foot, we need to consider the decimal places.
Looking at the decimal part (0.72), if it is less than 0.5, we round down; if it is 0.5 or greater, we round up. In this case, since 0.72 is greater than 0.5, we will round up.
Therefore, the length of the trial to the nearest foot is 6,899 feet.
