Question

5yd - 1ft = ____yd ____ft?

Answer 1

14 ft = 4 yd 2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yd is equivalent to 3 ft, so first, we need to convert 5 yds to ft as follows

`5\text{ yd }*\frac{3\text{ ft}}{1\text{ yd}}=\frac{5\text{ yd}*3\text{ ft}}{1\text{ yd}}=15\text{ ft}`

Therefore, the given expression is equal to

5yd - 1 ft = 15 ft - 1 ft = 14 ft

Now, we need to convert 14 ft to yards and ft. First, we can write 14 ft as

14 ft = 12 ft + 2 ft

Then, 12 ft to yd is equal to

`12\text{ ft}*\frac{1\text{ yd}}{3\text{ ft}}=4\text{ yd}`

Therefore, the answer is

14 ft = 12 ft + 2t

14 ft = 4 yd 2 ft
