Geeze, you've got to SHOW YOUR WORK, didn't the teacher tell you? You need some conversion factors:

1 meter = 3.280 839 895 feet
1 mile = 5280 feet

Now, do the Factor Label Method:

........................3.280 839 895 feet .......1 mile
3300 Meters x ------------------------ x ---------------
...................................1 meter.............5280 feet

The meters cancel each other out (one in the numerator and one in the denominator) as do the feet, so you are left with Miles as the units. Multiplying:

3300.....3.280839895.......... 1
------- x ------------------ x -------------- = 2.050524934375 miles
...1................1................. 5280

Now give me the pudding you were going to have for lunch.

1 meter = 3.2808399 feet and 1 mile = 5 280 feet

so 3300 * 3.2808399=10826.771 feet and 10826.771/5280= 2.0505248 miles

So a little over 2 miles

About two miles.

Well, since there are about 1,609.344 meters in a mile then that would be about 2.05 miles.
