Answer:

1 mile 201.25 yard = 5898 foot 9 inches

Explanation:

We have given that the contractor paving 1 mile 201.25 yards

We have to change this into feet and inches

We know that 1 mile = 1765 yard

So 1 mile 201.25 yard = 1765+201.25 = 1966.25 yard

Now we know that 1 yard = 3 foot

So 1966 yard = 1966×3 = 5898 foot

And 1 yard = 36 inches

So 0.25 yard = 0.25×36 = 9 inches

So 1 mile 201.25 yard = 5898 foot 9 inches
