To setup the proportion, we can use the ratio of 3 feet per 1 yard:
16 yards = ? feet
(16 yards) / (1) = ? feet / (3 feet)
(16) = ? / (3)
To solve for ?, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3:
(16) * (3) = ?
48 = ?
Therefore, 16 yards is equal to 48 feet.
Using that 3 feet = 1 yard, caculate the conversion below. It may help set up a proportion.
16 yards = ? feet
