Answer 2

Answer: D) 40 square yards

Explanation:

We know that 1 yard = 3 feet

Given that Area of Austin's office = 360 square feet

To find the area of his office in square yards, we need to divide the given area by square of 3.

We know that square of 3=
`3^2=9`

Thus, the area of his office in square yards=
`(360)/(9) square\ yards`

Hence, the area of his office in square yards=
`40\ square\ yards`
