Question

During every soccer game that Ronald plays, he runs all over the field. In his last game, he played on a soccer field that was 69,300 square feet. There are 3 feet in a yard. What is the area, in square yards (sq yd), of the soccer field where Ronald played his last game? Group of answer choices 7,700 sq yd 23,100 sq yd 207,900 sq yd 623,700 sq yd

Answer 1

The area of the soccer field where Ronald played his last game is 7,700 sq yd.

Explanation:

From the question,

The area of the soccer field where Ronald played his last game was 69,300 square feet.

To determine the area, in square yards (sq yd), of the soccer field where Ronald played his last game, we will convert 69,300 square feet to square yards.

Also, from the question

There are 3 feet in a yard, that is, 3 feet = 1 yard

If 3 feet = 1 yard

∴ 3² square feet (ft²) will be equal to 1² square yard (yd²)

That is,

9 square feet = 1 square yard

Now,

If 9 square feet = 1 square yard

Then, 69,300 square feet will be

(69,300 square feet × 1 square yard) / 9 square feet = (69300/9 )square yards

= 7700 square yards (sq yd)

Hence, the area of the soccer field where Ronald played his last game is 7,700 sq yd.
