Word Problem

I need someone to work this problem out step by step to help me prepare for
my test.

There are approximately 6080 feet in a nautical mile and 5280 feet in a land mile. On sea and in the air, distance and speed are often measured in nautical miles. The ratio of land miles to nautical miles is approximately 38 to 33.

A windjammer sailboat was used as a floating school. During one school year, the ship traveled 12,800 nautical miles. What would be the equivalent in land miles? Round to the nearest whole mile.

Thanks for helping me.

Set up the proportion:

. . . . .(land)/(nautical): 38/33 = x/12800

Solve.

I need to know how to solve step by step. I need it worked out up to the answer.

Last step: Multiply through by 12800.

(If you don't know how to solve the proportion, after it's already been set up for you, then I'm afraid you need more help than we can provide, since you're not recognizing when everything has been done for you but the last step. Sorry.)
