URGENT!!!!!!!!!

One acre is equivalent to 43,560 square feet. If an acre is also equivalent to 4,840 square yards, how many square feet are equal to one square yard?

Answer 1

You don't need the acre conversions for this. You know that three feet = one yard, expressed as
`3f=y`. If you square this (one square foot is literally one foot squared, the same goes for yards), then
`(3f)^(2) = y^(2)`, which means
`9 (f^(2))= y^(2)`, so there are nine square feet in a square yard.
