Answer 1

To convert feet to yards, you can use the following rule:

Rule: Divide the number of feet by 3.

Input Output Arrow:

Input (Number of feet) → (Divide by 3) → Output (Number of yards)

Example:

If the input is 6 feet:

• Input: 6 feet
• Rule: 6 feet ÷ 3 = 2 yards
• Output: 2 yards

So, the full representation would be:

Input (Number of feet) → Divide by 3 → Output (Number of yards)
