Nautical vs statue mile

A nautical mile is the unit of length used in sea and air navigation. A nautical mile is equal to 6,076 feet. What percent of a statue mile (5,280 ft) is a nautical mile?

Correct answer:

p =  86.8993 %

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} m_1=6076\text{ft} \\ {m}_2=5280\text{ft} \\ p=100\cdot \frac{m_2}{m_1}=100\cdot \frac{5280}{6076}=\frac{100\cdot 5280}{6076}=\frac{528000}{6076}=86.8993\% \end{gathered}$$
