Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is Area = 3240 ft²   or Area = 360 yd²    

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length = 30 yd

width = 36 ft

Area = ? ft²

Area = ? yd²

Process

1.- Convert the units

                  1 yd --------------------- 3ft

                 30 yd ------------------   x

                  x = (30 x 3)/1

                  x = 90 ft

                  1 yd ------------------- 3 ft

                  x     ------------------- 36 ft

                  x = (36 x 1) / 3

                  x = 12 yd

2.- Calculate the area of the rectangle in ft²

Area = length x width

-Substitution

Area = 90 x 36

        = 3240 ft²

3.- Calculate the area in yd²

Area = 30 x 12

        = 360 yd²
