Connor is stuck in a traffic jam on a single-lane road. the traffic report tells him the traffic jam stretches for 5.5 miles. if connor assumes each car is about 12.5 feet long, which calculation is most reasonable for connor to use to find about how many cars are stuck in the traffic jam?

2323

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the questions above, the report from the traffic jam says the traffics jam stretches for 5.5 miles

As Connor assumes that each car is about 12.5 long

The next step is to convert 5.5 miles into feet.

Since 1 mile = 5280

To convert 5.5 miles, 5.5 x 5280 = 29040 feet  

To find the numbers of cars struck in traffic, we will have to divide 29040 by 12.5

29040/12.5 = 2323.3 ≅ 2323
