D. Step 1: Divide: 117 by 9. Step 2: Divide: 162 by 9. Step 3: Add the two quotients.
Ok so first you turn 2 Yards into feet because the answers are all in feet by multiplying by 3/1 so it would look like this 2/1x3/1 which is 6 then you use proportion to get the 6 yards by it self so it would look like this 48/6 6/6 the you would get x= 8 feet to get 8 feet you dividied 48 by 6 hope this helps
