To find out how long it would take a jaguar to travel 100 yards at a speed of 50 feet per second, you first need to convert the distance from yards to feet:

1 yard = 3 feet, so:
\[ 100 \text{ yards} \times 3 \text{ feet/yard} = 300 \text{ feet} \]

Now that we know the distance is 300 feet, we can calculate the time it takes to travel that distance at 50 feet per second using the formula:

\[
\text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}
\]

Substituting in the values:
\[
\text{Time} = \frac{300 \text{ feet}}{50 \text{ feet/second}} = 6 \text{ seconds}
\]

Therefore, it would take the jaguar 6 seconds to travel 100 yards.
