Example Question #161 : Ratio And Proportion

How many yards are in $144\ inches?$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can make proportions.

We know that $1\ yard=36\ inches$ , and we can use as our unknown.

$\frac{1\ yard}{36\ inches}=\frac{x\ yards}{144\ inches}$

Next, we want to cross multiply and divide to isolate the on one side.

$36\ inches\times x\ yards= 1\ yard \times 144\ inches$

$4\ yards= \frac{1\ yard \times 144\ inches}{36\ inches}$

The $\yards$ $\ inches$ will cancel and we are left with $4\ yards$
