Answer:

There are 0.70km in 765 yards.

Explanation:

This is a problem of conversion of units, that can be solved by multiple rule of three's.

The first step is converting 765 yards to feet. We have that each yard has 3 feet, so

1 yard- 3 feet

765 yards - x feet

x = 765*3

x = 2295

So, in 765 yards there are 2295 feet.

Now, we have to convert 2295 feet to miles. Each mile has 5280 feet, so:

1 miles - 5280 feet

x miles - 2295 feet

5280x = 2295

x = 0.435 miles

So, in 765 yards there are 2295 feet which is 0.435 miles

Now, the final step is converting from miles to kilometers. Each km has 0.621 miles, so:

1km - 0.621 miles

xkm - 0.435 miles

0.621x = 0.435

x = 0.70km

So, there are 0.70km in 765 yards.
