Question

Firdaus measured the length of the wall and got 9 feet her cousin measured the same distance and said that it was three what unit was her cousin used to measure how do you know

Answer 1

Her cousin used Yard to measure the wall.

Explanation:

Firdaus measured the length of the wall and got 9 feet.

Her cousin measured the same distance and said that it was 3.

To find the answer, we have to use division.

Let "x" the divisor which divide 9 and gives the answer 3.

9 ÷ x = 3

3x = 9

To find x (divisor) we need to divide both sides by 3, we get

3x ÷ 3 = 9 ÷ 3

x = 3

So 1 unit cousin's measure = 3 feet Firdaus measure

We know that 1 yard = 3 feet.

Therefore, her cousin used Yard measure to measure the wall.
