Using the Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
so a = 6 and c = 8
lets solve for b
6^2 + b^2 = 8^2
36 + b^2 = 64
b^2 = 64 - 36
b^2 = 28
b = sqrt(28)
b = 5.29
b = 5.3 yards
If 48 is the new denominator, then..
12 times 4 = 48, so we have to take 7 times 4 as well.
The new numerator would be 28(7 times 4).
Thus, the new fraction would be 28/48. Hope it helps!
