Question

Lauren is building a tree house with her dad. The dimensions of the floor are 9feet by 6feet. What is the area of the floor measured in square yards

Answer 1

Answer: 18 sq Yards

Explanation:

To find the area of the floor, you have to multiply 9*6, which is 54 sq feet. If one yard is equal to three feet. You have to divide 54 by 3, which is 18. Thus, the answer is 18 sq, yards.

Answer 2

6 square yards

Explanation:

Let's remember that the formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L*W, where L is the length and W the width.

In this case, we don't know which one is which but it doesn't really matter. Let's assume L = 9feet and W = 6feet.

Therefore, A = 9feet * 6feet = 54square feet.

We need the answer in square yards. As 1 square yard is 9 square feet, we just have to divide 54 by 9, that's 6.

Therefore, the area of the floor is 6 square yards.
