To find out how many feet are in 6 yards, you can use the fact that there are 3 feet in 1 yard. Therefore, you can calculate the number of feet in 6 yards using the expression:

\[ 6 \text{ yards} \times 3 \text{ feet/yard} = 18 \text{ feet} \]

Now, let's evaluate the expressions provided to see which ones correctly represent the calculation for converting 6 yards into feet:

  1. 3 x 6: This equals 18, which is correct (3 feet per yard multiplied by 6 yards).
  2. 3 x 6 (again): Again, this equals 18, so it is correct.
  3. 6 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3: This adds up to 6 + 15 = 21 (incorrect).
  4. 6 + 6 + 6: This equals 18, representing 3 yards of feet (correct).
  5. 6 + 36 + 36 ÷ 3: This does not make sense in this context.
  6. 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3: This equals 18, as it effectively adds 3, 6 times (correct).
  7. 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 6: This equals 3 x 5 + 6 = 21 (incorrect).

Based on the evaluation, the correct expressions that describe how many feet are in 6 yards are:

  • 3 x 6
  • 3 x 6 (again)
  • 6 + 6 + 6
