Hi, I've got a quick question...

I ran a mile (5280 ft) totalling 1704 steps, I divided that getting 0.3227272727 & converted that into 3.87 inches but does that sound right? Also, I used a stride length calculator & it gave me 37.18?... So, if anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it.

Hello @Zadoth and welcome to the Community.  I'm not sure where you found your equation.  To calculate by hand, first convert feet to inches.  Then divide by the number of steps.  5280 x 12 = 63360.  63360 / 1704 = 37.18
