Vesna Vulovic survived the longest fall on record without a parachute when her plane exploded and she fell 6 miles and 551 yards. What is this distance in yards? What is this distance in meters? (round yards to nearest whole number, round meters to one decimal place)

wrong

To convert 6 miles and 551 yards to yards, we need to convert the miles to yards and then add the remaining yards.

1 mile is equal to 1,760 yards. Therefore, 6 miles is equal to 6 * 1,760 = 10,560 yards.

Adding the remaining 551 yards, the total distance in yards is 10,560 + 551 = 11,111 yards.

So, the distance of Vesna Vulovic's fall in yards is 11,111.

To convert this distance to meters, we need to multiply the number of yards by 0.9144 since 1 yard is equal to 0.9144 meters.

Multiplying 11,111 yards by 0.9144, we get 10,159.3184 meters.

Rounding this value to one decimal place, Vesna Vulovic fell for approximately 10,159.3 meters.

d = 6mi * 5,280Ft/mi * 1yd/3Ft + 551yds = 11,111 yds.

d = 11,111yds. * 3Ft./yd. * 1m/3.3Ft. = 10,100.9 m.

10,163 METERS?
