Answer

The feet units cancel out, leaving us with the answer in yards: \( 1350 \times \frac{1}{3} \text{ yards} \)

Steps

Step 1 :We know that 1 yard equals 3 feet, so we can set up the following conversion factor: \( \frac{1 \text{ yard}}{3 \text{ feet}} \)

Step 2 :Then multiply 1350 feet by the conversion factor: \( 1350 \text{ feet} \times \frac{1 \text{ yard}}{3 \text{ feet}} \)

Step 3 :The feet units cancel out, leaving us with the answer in yards: \( 1350 \times \frac{1}{3} \text{ yards} \)
