The length of an object in feet is equal to 3 times its length in yards. The length of a waterslide is 48 feet. Write and solve a multiplication equation to find the length of the waterslide in yards.

<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

The length of waterslide is 16 yards

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that,

The length of an object object in feet is equal to 3 times it’s length in yards

The length of wall water side slide is 48 feet

Let "y" be the length of object in yards

Write and solve a multiplication equation to find the length of the waterslides in yard

From given,

Length in feet = 3 times length in yards

$48 = 3 \times y$

<em><u>Therefore, the multiplication equation is:</u></em>

$3y = 48$

Solve the equation for "y"

Divide both sides of equation by 3

$\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{48}{3}\\\\y = 16$

Thus length of waterslide is 16 yards
