Question

Find the area of 72 by 108 inches in square yards? pls show work

Answer 1

Answer: 6 yards^2

Explanation:

first lets find the area of the space in inches and then convert the total to square yards :)

area = length * width

A = 108 * 72 = 7776 inches^2

now lets convert it

there are 1296 inches in a yard, so we divide 7776 by 1296 to find the number of square yards

7776 / 1296 = 6

so the area of the space is 6 yards^2

Answer 2

Explanation:

72 times 108 = 7776 sq inches

to convert inches to yds divide by 36

7776/ 36 = 216 sq yds
