Question

a measurement on a drawing states that a distance is 35 yards. what is the same distance in meters?
oa. 420 m
ob. 32.004 m
oc. 38.29 m
od. 105 m

Explanation:

Step1: Recall yard to meter conversion

1 yard is approximately equal to 0.9144 meters. So, to convert yards to meters, we use the formula: \( \text{Distance in meters} = \text{Distance in yards} \times 0.9144 \).

Step2: Calculate the distance in meters

Given the distance is 35 yards. Substitute into the formula: \( 35 \times 0.9144 = 32.004 \) meters.

Answer:

B. 32.004 m
