Answer:

40.23 meters (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Explanation:

We need to convert 132 feet to meters by using the conversion factor shown below:

1 feet = 0.3048 meters

Now we can setup a ratio to solve for the length of basketball court in meters (let it be x). Shown below:


(1)/(0.3048)=(132)/(x)\\x=132*0.3048\\x=40.2336

Thus, length of basketball court (in m) = 40.23 meters (rounded to 2 decimal places)
