Convert to find the equivalent rate.

7 yards / month = _ inches / year

1 answer

To convert 7 yards per month to inches per year, we first need to know the conversions between the different units involved.

1 yard = 36 inches. 1 year = 12 months.

Now we can calculate the equivalent rate:

  1. Convert yards to inches: \[ 7 \text{ yards} = 7 \times 36 \text{ inches} = 252 \text{ inches} \]

  2. Since this is a monthly rate, we now find the annual rate by multiplying by the number of months in a year: \[ 252 \text{ inches/month} \times 12 \text{ months/year} = 3024 \text{ inches/year} \]

Thus, the equivalent rate is: \[ \boxed{3024} \text{ inches/year} \]
