Question

Convert the measurement as indicated 13yd to feet

Answer 1

`x=39ft`

1) We can convert this measurement by setting a proportion and cross multiplying that.

2) So, let's begin by writing the proportions:

`\begin{gathered} 1yd-----3ft \\ 13-----x \\ (1)/(13)=(3)/(x) \\ x=39\:ft \end{gathered}`

So 13 yds are equivalent to 39 feet.
