Explanation:

Here we have , Wyatt makes and sells rope doormats. He uses 200 feet of rope for each doormat. He wants to make 25 doormats. We need to find Which expression shows a correct way to find how many yards of rope he needs. Let's find out:

Wyatt makes and sells rope doormats. He uses 200 feet of rope for each doormat , i.e. for 1 doormat he uses 200 feet of rope

⇒
`1 Doormat=200 ft`

So , for 25 Doormat he uses :

⇒
`25(1 Doormat)=25(200) ft`

⇒
`25 Doormat=25(200) ft`

But ,
`1 yard = 3 ft` ⇒
`1 feet = (1)/(3) yard` .Hence ,

⇒
`25 Doormat=25(200) ((1)/(3))yards`

Hence Correct answer is
`200(25)((1)/(3))` or , 200×25÷3 . Given answer is not in any of option! kindly match this answer with your options available!
