Question

A regulation baseball field measures 90 feet between each base. What is the distance around the bases in yards?

Answer 1

We can use the conversion ratio, 1/3ft = 1yd.

So, to determine 90ft, we can set up an equality:

`x= (1)/(3)(90)` where x is the yards.

Then, solve for x:

`30=x`

Answer 2

90 feet to yards is 30 yards
so it would be be 30 yards in distance.
hope this helps!
