100 ft in 1 mile = 100 ft in 5280 ft = 1.8939% gradient
for every 100 feet of road you travel, you rise 9 feet
[(100x60) + (Tx40)]/100=Average, where T is you average on the other 40% of your grade. Example: your grade average is 90 before the test. You get a 100 on the big test. [(100x60) + 90x40)]/100 = [6000 + 3600]/100 = 96
(85 percent + 79 percent + 92 percent + 100 percent)/4 = 89 percent
A mile is 5,280 feet, so 450 feet is 8.52% of a mile. (450/5280)/100 = 8.52%)
When determining the measurement of slope on a road, the equations are for grade (gradient). The formula is grade = (rise ÷ slope length) * 100
I suppose you mean road gradients which are specified in percent. This means the amount of rise or fall per unit of distance. Thus a gradient of 1 in 5, which means a rise or fall of 1 unit in 5 units of distance, would be stated as 20 percent, that is 20 in 100, which is the same as 1 in 5.

10 percent of a mile is larger.

conversion: 1 mile = 1609.34 meters 10% of a mile = 10% of 1609.34 = 160.934 meters 100% of a meter = 1 meter Therefore, 10% of a mile is longer than 100% of a meter.
" 1 to 5" would most likely be 1% to 5% grade, which is giving information about how steep the hill will be. This indicates an elevation change of as little as 52.8 ft to as much as 264 ft in one mile (5280 ft). This is slope information which has frustrated many people including me, because I did not know exactly how high and how far. Later, I found that this is a ratio and that how high and how far was irrelevant. 0% grade = 0 degree angle or flat road; 100% grade = 45 degree angle (90 degree angle is a vertical cliff or drop off). (Rise divided by Run) times 100 or (Rise/Run) x 100 = Grade percentage Rise = change in elevation Run = distance so: 100ft rise divided by 1000ft run = 0.1 times 100 = 10% simplifying, as a ratio: A 10% grade will have a 1 ft rise or fall in elevation for every 10 ft. (528 ft change in one mile) A 5% grade will have a rise or fall in elevation of 0.5 ft for every 10 ft. (264 ft change in one mile) A 1% grade will have a rise or fall in elevation of 0.1 ft for every 10 ft. 52.8 ft change in one mile)
This would be rise over run. I don't think I can explain why. Tangent
75% out of 100% is 75/100 or .75. In grade terms is a C.
[(100x60) + (Tx40)]/100=Average, where T is you average on the other 40% of your grade. Example: your grade average is 90 before the test. You get a 100 on the big test. [(100x60) + 90x40)]/100 = [6000 + 3600]/100 = 96
