Question

Which of the following would you most likely use miles to measure?

A. length of a piece of notebook paper
B. width of a dime
C. distance an airplane travels
D. length of a room

Answer 1

You would measure C - The distance an airplane travels because a mile is 5280 feet, so a mile would be way longer than all the other choices.

Answer 2

C. Because miles is a distance. To find the length of a room you would use feet (or you could use yards). To find the length of notebook paper you would use inches. And the width of a dime would most likely be centimeters. :)
