Answer:
The answer to your problem is, 156
First lets find out how many feet or in one yard ?
Well 1 yard = 3 feet.
Now that we know that we can use our knowledge to answer the next question:
If Bill ran 52 yards, how many feet did he ran?
We can do math to solve our answer. :
1 x 52 = 52.
Now we need to multiply 52 x 3.
That is a little bit to much, so lets make the problem easier!
By breaking up the problem \/ to make it more easier.
50 x 3. ( 5 x 3 = 15, just add a zero! ) = 150
3 x 2 = 6.
Next add:
150 + 6 = 156.
Thus the answer to your problem is, 156
