Question

2yd - 1ft = _____yd ______ft?

Answer 1

Answer: 1yd 2ft

Step-by-step explanation

s we have a subtraction, we have to have the same units. Thus, in order to do so we have to consider that 1 yd = 3ft:

`(3ft)/(1yd)`

Then, converting 2yf to ft:

`2yd\cdot(3ft)/(1yd)=6ft`

Now, we can make the subtraction:

`6ft-1ft=5ft`

Finally, we can convert 3 ft to one yd:

`3ft(1yd)/(3ft)=1yd`

and we have 2 ft left.
