Answer 1

D.

Explanation:

We know that 1 yard equals 3 feet.

So, if we want to covert
`x \ yards` in feet, we would have

`x \ yd(3 \ ft)/(1 \ yd) =x(3)/(1)`

With this example, we observe that the right ratio to convert from yard to feet is

`(3 \ feet)/(1 \ yard)`

Therefore, the right answer is D.

Answer 2

Option D.
`(3)/(1)(ft)/(yd)`

Explanation:

we know that

`1\ yard=3\ feet`

To convert yards to feet, multiply by the ratio
`(3)/(1)(ft)/(yd)`
