You need 3 trucks of sand that hold 5 tons and 2 trucks that hold 3 tons to move all the sand in one trip

Well you need three trucks that can pull 5 tons of sand each; that gives us 15 tons total taken care of so far, and 2 drivers left.
The last two drivers drive two trucks that pull 3 tons of sand each; giving us a total of 21 tons and zero drivers left.
Hope this helps!

Which measurements are equivalent to 3 yards
timofeeve [1]

The equivalent measures to 3 yards are;

108 inches and ; 6 ft 36 inches

Here, we want to get the values of the measurements that are equivalent to 3 yards

To do this, we need to know how to convert between the various measure types

We proceed as follows;

Mathematically, 1 yard is 36 inches; also, 1 yard is 3 feet

So, 3 yards is (3*36) = 108 inches

Also, 3 yards is (3*3) = 9 feet

Also, 1 ft is 12 inches;

So, 6 ft 12 inches is 7 feet

108 inches is as seen above, so 3 yards equal this

3 yards is not 108 feet as calculated above

6 ft 36 inches

36 inches is 3 ft; so by addition; 6 ft 36 inches is 9 ft

So, the correct answers here are 108 inches and 6 ft 36 inches
