Question

Convert to find the equivalent rate.

56 yards / week = _ inches / week

Answer 1

To convert yards to inches, we can use the conversion factors:

1 yard = 3 feet
1 foot = 12 inches

First, convert yards to inches:

\[
56 \text{ yards} \times 3 \text{ feet/yard} \times 12 \text{ inches/foot}
\]

Calculating this step-by-step:

1. Convert yards to feet:
\[
56 \text{ yards} \times 3 \text{ feet/yard} = 168 \text{ feet}
\]

2. Convert feet to inches:
\[
168 \text{ feet} \times 12 \text{ inches/foot} = 2016 \text{ inches}
\]

Therefore, \( 56 \text{ yards/week} \) is equivalent to \( 2016 \text{ inches/week} \).

So, the final answer is:

\[
56 \text{ yards/week} = 2016 \text{ inches/week}
\]
