Question

Convert 10 centimeters into yards. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

0.11 yards

Explanation:

To convert centimeters to yards, find the needed unit conversions:

`cm((in)/(cm))((ft)/(in))((yd)/(ft))`

Convert centimeters to inches, inches to feet, then feet to yards!

Now replace the values with the correct quantities:

`10cm((1in)/(2.54cm))((1 ft)/(12 in))((1 yd)/(3 ft))`

Finally, simplify and cross-cancel the units:

`0.10936... yd`

Round to the nearest hundredth:

`0.11 yd`
