The correct answers are:

Box-1: \frac{3\thinspace ft}{1\thinspace yd}

Box-2: \frac{12\thinspace \thinspace in}{1\thinspace ft}

Box-3: \frac{1\thinspace stud}{15\thinspace in}

Box-4: <em>42</em> studs

Explanation:

Given:

Wall is 17.5 yds long.

<em>In 1 yard, there are 3 feet.</em>

Therefore,

\frac{17.5\thinspace yd}{1} * \frac{3\thinspace ft}{1\thinspace yd}

In Box-1, you should put \frac{3\thinspace ft}{1\thinspace yd}.

<em>In 1 foot, there are 12 inches.</em>

Therefore,

\frac{17.5\thinspace yd}{1} * \frac{3\thinspace ft}{1\thinspace yd}*\frac{12\thinspace in}{1\thinspace ft}

In Box-2, you should put \frac{12\thinspace \thinspace in}{1\thinspace ft}.

<em>He needs to place 1 stud every 15 inches.</em>

Therefore,

\frac{17.5\thinspace yd}{1} * \frac{3\thinspace ft}{1\thinspace yd}*\frac{12\thinspace in}{1\thinspace ft}*\frac{1\thinspace stud}{15\thinspace in}

In Box-3, you should put \frac{1\thinspace stud}{15\thinspace in}.

<em>Now multiple all the numbers, you will get the number of studs.</em>

<em>\frac{17.5\thinspace yd}{1} * \frac{3\thinspace ft}{1\thinspace yd}*\frac{12\thinspace in}{1\thinspace ft}*\frac{1\thinspace stud}{15\thinspace in} = 42\thinspace studs</em>

In Box-4, write 42 studs.
