An athletic director is laying out a rectangular soccer field to be 60 m wide and 95 m long. What are they dimensions of the field to the nearest whole yard?

Answer 1

To convert the dimensions of the soccer field from meters to yards, you can use the conversion factor that 1 meter is approximately equal to 1.09361 yards.

1. Width: \[ 60 \text{ m} \times 1.09361 \text{ yards/m} \approx 65.617 \text{ yards} \] Rounding to the nearest whole yard, the width is approximately 66 yards.

2. Length: \[ 95 \text{ m} \times 1.09361 \text{ yards/m} \approx 103.353 \text{ yards} \] Rounding to the nearest whole yard, the length is approximately 103 yards.

Therefore, the dimensions of the field to the nearest whole yard are 66 yards wide and 103 yards long.
