To determine whether the number of millimeters will be fewer than or greater than 2 when converting 2 yards to millimeters, we need to know the conversion factor:
1 yard = 1,000 millimeters.
So, to convert 2 yards to millimeters:
2 yards × 1,000 millimeters/yard = 2,000 millimeters.
Since 2,000 millimeters is greater than 2, the correct response is:
Greater than, because millimeters are smaller than yards.
