Question

what part of a yard is 1 1/2 ft? what part of a mile is 1 rod? If 1 rod is 5 1/2 yards. 320 rods = 1 mile.
Ms. Sue
A yard is 3 feet. 1 1/2 feet is half a yard.

1 rod is 1/320 of a mile or
1 rods = 0.003125 mile

Braxton
Thank you what about 40 rods? 80 rods? and 160 rods? I think 160 rods of a mile is 1/2 right?
Ms. Sue
Right.

40 rods = 40/320 = 1/8 mile

Braxton
so 80 would be 1/4 and then 1/2 right?
Braxton

How would I show a kid in third grade on how to remember to do this. Is there an easy formula?
Ms. Sue
I'd make or find a table that would show these equivalents.

Better yet, I'd help him make such a table so he could refer to it.

Braxton
