Question

ou have a roll of tape that is 60 meters long. How many yards do you have? Note: 1 yd = .9144 meter. A) 50 yards B) 60 yards C) 66 yards D) 98 yards

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 66 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the long of the roll of tape in yard unit, we have to change the meter unit to yard unit.

So, if we have the conversion, so we applicate it:

$60 meters*\frac{1yard}{0.9144meters}\\\frac{60}{0.9144}yard\\66 yard$

The last result was rounded to the nearest whole number.

When you want to change the measure units, you always have to multiplicate by the conversion between both measures units.

Finally, you have 66 yards of roll of tape.

Answer 2

The answer is 65.62, but if you round it off it would be C) 66 yards.
