Python Basic: Exercise-61 with Solution

Feet to Other Units

Write a Python program to convert the distance (in feet) to inches, yards, and miles.

Unit Equivalents	Conversion Factors (longer to shorter units of measurement)	Conversion Factors (shorter to longer units of measurement)
1 foot = 12 inches	12 inches _______ 1 foot	1 foot _______ 12 inches
1 yard = 3 feet	3 feet _______ 1 yard	1 yard _______ 3 feet
1 mile = 5,280 feet	5,280 feet ________ 1 mile	1 mile ________ 5,280 feet

Pictorial Presentation:

Convert the distance (in feet) to inches, yards, and miles

Sample Solution:

Python Code :

# Prompt the user to input a distance in feet and store it in the variable 'd_ft'.
d_ft = int(input("Input distance in feet: "))

# Convert the distance in feet to inches and store it in the variable 'd_inches'.
d_inches = d_ft * 12

# Convert the distance in feet to yards and store it in the variable 'd_yards'.
d_yards = d_ft / 3.0

# Convert the distance in feet to miles and store it in the variable 'd_miles'.
d_miles = d_ft / 5280.0

# Print the calculated distances in inches, yards, and miles.
print("The distance in inches is %i inches." % d_inches)
print("The distance in yards is %.2f yards." % d_yards)
print("The distance in miles is %.2f miles." % d_miles)

Sample Output:

Input distance in feet: 100                                                                                   
The distance in inches is 1200 inches.                                                                        
The distance in yards is 33.33 yards.                                                                         
The distance in miles is 0.02 miles.
