Final answer:

To find the product of 3 yards 5 feet 6 inches and 7, convert to inches (174 inches), multiply by 7, then convert back to yards, feet, and inches to get 33 yards, 2 feet, and 6 inches, corresponding to option G.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the result of multiplying 3 yards 5 feet 6 inches by 7. To solve this, we need to convert all measurements to inches, multiply by 7, and then convert back to yards, feet, and inches.

  • First, convert 3 yards to feet. There are 3 feet in 1 yard, so 3 yards equal 9 feet.
  • Add the additional 5 feet to get a total of 14 feet.
  • Next, convert 14 feet to inches. There are 12 inches in 1 foot, so 14 feet equal 168 inches.
  • Add the additional 6 inches to get a total of 174 inches.
  • Now multiply 174 inches by 7 to get 1218 inches.
  • To convert back, first divide by 36, since there are 36 inches in a yard. This gives 33 yards and 30 inches left over, which is 2 feet and 6 inches, since there are 12 inches in a foot.

The final answer is 33 yards 2 feet 6 inches, which corresponds to option G.
