Answer: Malcom can run the furthest.
======================================================
Step-by-step explanation:
Race 1
Let's convert Malcom's distance to inches so we can compare his distance to his sister's.
1 yard = 3 feet
10 yards = 30 feet (multiply both sides by 10)
1 foot = 12 inches
30 feet = 360 inches (multiply both sides by 30)
In Malcom's first race, he ran 360 inches. He has run the furthest compared to his sister who ran 300 inches.
------------------------
Race 2
Convert Malcom's distance from feet to inches.
1 foot = 12 inches
18 feet = 216 inches (multiply both sides by 18)
Malcom runs 216 inches compared to his sister's distance of 180 inches. Malcom is the winner again.
------------------------
Race 3
120 inches = 120/12 = 10 feet
Divide by 12 to convert from inches to feet, or you could have these steps
12 inches = 1 ft
120 inches = 10 feet
after multiplying both sides by 10.
Malcom runs 10 feet compared to 5 feet which his sister runs.
In each race, Malcom has ran the furthest.
