To convert 504 feet per year to yards per month, follow these steps:
-
Convert feet to yards: There are 3 feet in a yard. Therefore, divide the number of feet by 3.
\[ 504 \text{ feet} \div 3 = 168 \text{ yards} \]
-
Convert years to months: There are 12 months in a year. To convert the rate from per year to per month, divide the annual figure by 12.
\[ 168 \text{ yards} \div 12 = 14 \text{ yards} \]
Thus, the equivalent rate is:
\[ 504 \text{ feet/year} = 14 \text{ yards/month} \]
