How many feet are in one rod?

  1. 16.5

  2. 20

  3. 66

  4. 10

The correct answer is: 16.5

One rod is equal to 16.5 feet. This can be derived from the fact that one rod is equal to 1/320th of a mile, and a mile is equivalent to 5280 feet. This means that one rod is equal to 5280/320 = 16.5 feet. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they either do not divide evenly into 5280 or are not a factor of 5280 at all, making them incorrect conversion rates.
