A concise dive into using Fibonacci numbers as a mental math shortcut for converting miles to kilometers. By taking the next Fibonacci number after a given mile value, you get quick, accurate estimates (3 mi → 5 km, 13 mi → 21 km, 55 mi → 89 km); for non-Fibonacci values you can decompose or approximate. The trick rests on Fibonacci ratios converging to the golden ratio, turning a natural sequence into a practical everyday tool—and a reminder that pattern recognition can boost efficiency in work and life.
