how to change kilometres to miles please cheers.

 

 

 

the below code shows

kilometres 4.24 

 

but i want miles

Miles 2.63 

 

 

<?php

// CALCULATE THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO POINTS 

$hypot=sqrt(($distance_n*$distance_n)+($distance_e*$distance_e)); 

$text.='Distance between '.$pcodeA.' and '.$pcodeB.' is: '.round($hypot/1000,2).'kms'; 

echo $text; 

?>

Add another function that converts kilometres to miles ... you can write it, but the conversion is:

 

1 kilometers = 0.621371192 miles

Thank you but the format is wrong what do i do to get example

 

Distance between and is: 2.63miles

 

but i got this

 

Distance between and is: 4.24kms

Distance between and is: 2638miles

 

$text2.='Distance between '.$pcodeA.' and '.$pcodeB.' is: '.round($hypot*0.621371192).'miles';

Because you didn't divide $hypot before multiplying ... divide your response by 1000 and it's correct.

Thank u so much.

 

$text2.='Distance between '.$post_a.' and '.$post_b.' is: '.round($hypot*0.621371192/1000,2).'miles';
