Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. We are converting feet to yards.
2. The conversion factor between feet and yards is 1 yard=3 feet1 \text{ yard} = 3 \text{ feet}.

STEP 2

1. Define the conversion factor.
2. Set up the conversion equation.
3. Solve the conversion equation.

STEP 3

Identify the conversion factor: 1 yard=3 feet1 \text{ yard} = 3 \text{ feet}.

STEP 4

Set up the conversion equation using the conversion factor. Let y y represent the number of yards.
36 feet=y yards 36 \text{ feet} = y \text{ yards}
Since 1 yard=3 feet1 \text{ yard} = 3 \text{ feet}, we can express this as:
y=36 feet3 feet per yard y = \frac{36 \text{ feet}}{3 \text{ feet per yard}}

STEP 5

Solve the conversion equation to find y y .
y=363=12 y = \frac{36}{3} = 12
The conversion of 36 feet36 \text{ feet} to yards is:
12 yards\boxed{12 \text{ yards}}
