Tom converted the height this way 3 feet=1 yard
Conversion Factor: 3 ft over 1 Yard
379ft/1x3ft/1yard= 1,137

What is Tom's error and show how to correctly convert 379 feet to yards.
So, 379 feet= ?

How did I know Tom's answer was incorrect?

Relax

Respuesta :

the units have to cancel out
1yard/3feet should be it
it is wrong since yards are bigger than feet so
379ft/1 times 1yd/3ft=379ydft/3ft=126.33333333yard
