Arithmetic Reasoning

How many yards are in 10 miles?

As an ASVAB tutor, I have included measurement as one of the subtopics I cover in my classes on Arithmetic Reasoning.  I remind my students of the importance of knowing the conversions in measurements.  When it comes to distance, students need to know the conversions of inches, feet, yards, and miles.  To answer this question, it is essential to know how many yards are in 1 mile.  After knowing that, it is easy to figure out how many yards are in 10 miles.  I tell the students in my ASVAB prep course, that if they do not know the conversions, they cannot possibly answer these questions correctly.  Knowing the conversions is an essential part of mastering measurement in Arithmetic Reasoning.  Do you know how many yards are in 1 mile?  If so, how many yards are in 10 miles?  I will present the answer and explanation tomorrow.
