Question

marvin buys a hose 27 3/4 feet long he already owns a hose at home that is 2/3 the length of the new hose. how many total yards of hose does marvin have now?

Answer 1

27.75+2(27.75)/3=46.25ft

46.25ft(yd/3ft)≈15.42yd

Answer 2

Marvin have 15.40125 total yards of hose now

Further explanation

There are 7 main quantities that have been determined based on international standards, namely:

• 1. Length, meters (m)
• 2. Time, second (s)
• 3. Mass, kilograms (kg)
• 4. Temperature, kelvin (K)
• 5. Light intensity, candela (cd)
• 6. Electric current, ampere (A)
• 7. Amount of substance, mol (m)

The length indicate the distance between two points in a place

The symbol is usually expressed in l, length

Length measurement can be used by several measuring instruments such as ruler / ruler, caliper length, meter, screw micrometer

The main length unit consists of 7 units other than other units of length such as inches, miles, yards, feet:

• Kilometer, km
• Hectometer, hm
• Dekameter, dam
• Meter, m
• Decimeter, dm
• centimeter, cm
• millimeters, mm

Each one unit descends then multiplied by 10, and if one unit increases then divided by 10

English units are the units that were used in England

For the length , the standart from English unit is yard

The conversions between units:

1 m =

a. 1.09361 yard

b. 6.214.10⁻⁴ mile

c. 3.2808 foot

d. 39.3701 inch

Marvin buys a hose 27 3/4 feet

He already owns a hose at home that is 2/3 the length of the new hose, so the total length of a hose  :

${\displaystyle = {27\frac {3} {4}}+{(\frac{2}{3}\:\times\:27\frac{3}{4}) }$

=${\displaystyle = {\frac {1110} {24}}}$

${\displaystyle = {46\frac {1} {4}}\:feet}$

We convert to yard

1 feet = 0.333 yard

$46\frac{1}{4} \times\: 0.333$

= 15.40125 yard
