Answer:
\(\frac{\text{1 mile}}{\text{1760 yards}}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to convert a distance of 4500 yards to miles.
We know that 1 mile equals 1760 yards.
To concert 4500 yards to miles, we will multiply 4500 yards by \(\frac{\text{1 mile}}{\text{1760 yards}}\).
\(\text{4500 yards}\times \frac{\text{1 mile}}{\text{1760 yards}}\)
\(\text{4500}\times \frac{\text{1 mile}}{\text{1760}}\)
Therefore, our required ratio would be\(\frac{\text{1 mile}}{\text{1760 yards}}\).
