18 1/2 YD^2 =________FT^2
there are 9 ft^2/ yd^2
because 3*3 is 9
there's 3 ft in 1 yd, so
3 ft = 1 yd
3 ft / 1 yd = 1
18.5 yd² x 1 = __________ ft²
18.5 yd² x (3 ft / 1 yd)² = 166.5 ft²
To convert square yards (yd^2) to square feet (ft^2), you need to know the conversion factor between the two units. The conversion factor for square yards to square feet is 9.
Here's how you can calculate the answer:
1. Start with the given value of 18 1/2 yd^2.
2. Multiply the value by the conversion factor of 9 to get the answer in square feet.
Calculation:
18 1/2 yd^2 * 9 = (18.5 * 9) ft^2 = 166.5 ft^2
Therefore, 18 1/2 square yards is equal to 166.5 square feet.
