    Answer: 23

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1 mile = 5280 feet

    So,

    There are 5280/240 = 22 240 ft. in 1 mile

    So, there will be 22 signs in that 1 mile road. Notice that when we divide 5280 by 240 we get an integer. So, we can say that the sign placed at the end of the mile is included in that 22. Now, all we need to do is add one sign that is at the start of the mile. Therefore, the toal signs is 23
