A jaguar can travel at a speed of 50 feet per second. To find out how long it would take the jaguar to travel 100 yards, we would need to convert yards to what unit?(3 points)

Answer 1

To find out how long it would take the jaguar to travel 100 yards, we need to convert yards to the same unit as the speed of the jaguar, which is given in feet per second.

1 yard is equal to 3 feet. Therefore, to convert 100 yards to feet, you multiply by 3:

100 yards × 3 feet/yard = 300 feet.

Thus, we need to convert yards to feet to calculate the time it takes for the jaguar to travel that distance.
