Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

First we will apply conversions to given terms:

1 yard has = 36 inches

So, 100 yards has =
36*100=3600 inches.

1 meter = 100 cm

So, 28 meters has =
28*100=2800 cm

So, now upon comparing we can see that 3600 is greater than 2800.

Therefore, the inches in a 100 yard field are greater than the cm in a 28 meter basketball court.

The statement given here is true.

Answer:

The given statement is True

Explanation:

WE have to find out that which one has more no of inches

so now we have

100 yards football field

28 meter basketball court

Total no of inches in one yard = 36 inches

Total no of inches in 100 yard = 36 * 100

= 3600 inches

Now total no of inches in one meter = 39.3701 inches

Total no of inches in 28 meter = 28 * 39.3701

=1102.3628 inches

So we can see that 1102.3628 is smaller than 3600

So It can also be seen that football field has more inches then a basketball court

So the given statement is True
