One yard is to 4ft as 18 miles is to miles?

Answer 1

1 yard = 3 feet

(1 yard) / (4 feet) = (3 feet) / (4 feet) = 0.75

(18 miles) / X = 0.75

X = 18/0.75 = 24 miles

Answer 2

One yard is equal to 3 feet, so the ratio is 1 yard : 4 feet. To solve for the equivalent ratio for 18 miles, divide 18 by 1.5 (since 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet, which is 1.5 times longer than a yard). Therefore, the equivalent ratio is 18 miles : 72 feet.
