Question

You have a roll of string that is 60 meters long. Which BEST approximates the number of yards of string on the roll? (1 yd = 0.9144 meter)
A) 50 yards
B) 60 yards
C) 66 yards
D) 98 yards

Answer 1

The answer is C) 66 yards

Answer 2

Answer:

66 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 yard = 0.9144 meter

60meters = ?

Therefore

1 yard = 0.9144 meter

y = 60 meters

Cross multiply

60 x 1 = y x 0.9144

60 = 0.9144y

Divide both sides by 0.9144

60/0.9144 = 0.9144y/0.9144

65.62 = y

y = 66 yards
