Answer:

The largest distance is 600 yards

B is correct

Explanation:

We need to largest value of measurement from given option.

First we will change each measurement into same unit.

The smallest unit is inch

So, we will change each one into inch

Option A: 600 feet

1 feet = 12 inch

600 feet = 600 x 12

= 7200 inches

600 feet = 7200 inches

Option B: 600 yards

1 yard = 36 inches

600 yard = 36 x 600

= 21600

600 yards = 21600 inches

Option C: 0.06 miles

1 mile = 63360 inches

0.06 mile = 0.06 x 63360

= 3802 inches

0.06 miles = 3802 inches

Option D: 6000 inches

Now we will compare each inches

21600 > 7200 > 6000 > 3802

600 yards > 600 feet > 6000 inches > 0.06 miles

Hence, The largest distance is 600 yards
