Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

First and foremost, we should not that:

1 yard = 3 feet

We are informed that Wyatt uses 200 feet of rope for each doormat and that he wants to make 25 doormats.

The expression that shows a correct way to find how many yards of rope he needs will be:

= (200 × 25) / 3

= 5000/3

= 1666.67 yards
