Let's call 'it' x. 1/2 is equal to one third of x, so we could say that 1/3x = 1/2
Now we just have a simple equation to solve:
1/3x = 1/2
x = (1/2) / (1/3)
Dividing by a rational number (such as 1/3, which is expressed in fraction form) is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal (the reciprocal of a fraction is itself when the numerator and denominator have been swapped). Therefore
x = (1/2) / (1/3) = (1/2) * 3 = 3/2 = 1.5
To check this answer, test the statement. Half is a third of x, where x=1.5:
1.5 / 3 = 0.5 = 1/2
The answer is 27 yards squared

Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees
A + B + C = 180
2x-10 + 70+ x+30 = 180
Combine like terms
3x +90 = 180
Subtract 90 from each side
3x+90-90=180-90
3x= 90
Divide by 3
3x/3= 90/3
x=30
We want to find angle A
A = 2x-10
=2*30 -10
=60-10
