Answer:

89883 paper clips

Explanation:

To solve this problem you need to use conversion factors to work with the same units.

First you should convert 32.3mm to miles:

[tex]32.3mm*\frac{6.2*10^{-7}}{1000mm}=2*10^{-5}miles[/tex]

Then you should divide the total distance between the length of a paper clip in miles, so:

[tex]\frac{1.8miles}{2*10^{-5}miles}=89883paperclips[/tex]
