10. Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa, is 19,340 ft tall. What is the distance from the summit of Kilimanjaro to the horizon to the nearest mile?

4 miles (to 2 decimal places, that would be 3.66 miles)

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of Mr. Kilimanjaro is 19,340 feet.

We want distance from summit to horizon of Kilimanjaro. That is same as the height listed above (in feet). We want this to nearest miles.

What is the conversion factor for feet to miles?

That is:

1 mile = 5280 feet

We need to divide 19,340 feet by 5280 feet to get our answer in miles:

19,340/5280 = 3.66 miles

To the nearest miles (rounding off), we get around 4 miles
