Answer 1

To convert meters to yards, you can use the ratio provided: 1 meter is approximately equal to 1.09 yards.

Martha runs 1,000 meters. Therefore, to find out how many yards she runs, you multiply the number of meters by the conversion factor:

\[ 1,000 \text{ meters} \times 1.09 \text{ yards/meter} = 1,090 \text{ yards} \]

So, Martha runs 1,090 yards. The correct response is:

1,090
