Hello and welcome to Just Answer,

The closest convenient fraction is 1/20 of a mile.

If you round the number to .05 miles, then it is equivalent to 1/20 of a mile. Actually, it is about 4 feet less than 1/20th of a mile.

There are 5,280 feet in a mile. The distance .049242 miles is approximately equal to 260 feet.

Does that help?
