Take 2 miles, subtract 1.

Take 1/2 mile, double it.

Too much work

Too much laziness.
If you would never do all that, why do you need to visualize a mile?

Ok. Lazy-approved instructions, then:

Get in your car.
Find a very long and straight road, maybe an Interstate.
Reset one of the trip counters to 0.0.
Drive until it turns from 0.9 to 1.0.
That's a mile.
Look back if you can see where you started.

I love to walk, I just hate math.

You can't subtract 1 from 2 miles the units are different

Is 5,280 feet a good unit of measurement? What is it in metric system?


An inch is roughly the width of a person's thumb
A foot is roughly the length of a person's foot
A yard is roughly the stride of a single person (one pace)
A mile is roughly 1000 paces, having originated from the Roman mille passus, or thousand paces."

I get that metric is easier to convert between units because everything is base 10, but imperial is based on easily quantifiable measures by humans without access to an accurate measuring device, so it has its purpose.


So much wrong.

https://www.britannica.com/science/British-Imperial-System

I wonder if someone's going to pretend that intuitive, easily quantifiable approximate measurements don't exist for the metric system now


So simple, that rather than post them you just decided to vaguely imply that they exist. So tell me what they are for centimeter, meter, and kilometer.

micropenis, manlet, one thousand manlets

next

if you get accustomed to the metric system, you learn how to visualize the measurements. shocking, I know.

anyway: a figernail is roughly 1cm squared. a meter is about an arm length.

imagine being so invested in the superiority of your country's archaic measurement system that you don't believe intuitive approximations exist for the one used by everyone else in the world

Time is a funny thing. There is always too much of it, except when you need it the most. Then there is never enough.

Which means nothing if a mile is what you're trying to determine.

Oh, yes. This one is great and easy.
Go to a very straight and long road. Put a flag or cone or something highly visible at the x.y mile marker. Go to the (x-1).y or (x+1).y marker, and look at your object.
Ex: flag at 8.0, you go to marker 9.0 and look at your flag.
That's a mile.
