Question

From goal line to goal line, a football field is 300 ft long. If a player catches the ball while standing on one goal line, runs to the other goal line, and scores a touchdown, how many meters did he run?

Answer 1

Answer:

The player ran 91.44m.

Explanation:

The problem gives you the total distance between goal line to goal line in feet, and the answer must be given in meters, so you should convert the distance the player run from ft to m, because the player run the same distance from goal line to goal line to scores the touchdown.

So, you should apply the following conversion factor:

$300ft*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}= 91.44m$

The player ran 91.44m.
