what part of a yard is 1 1/2ft? What part of a mile is 1 rod? 1 rod is 320 rods. What part of a mile is 40 rods? 80 rods? 160 rods?
Hmmm~ Arlington is a strange name for a school subject.
I mean 320 rods = 1 mile
Well I wanted to say math...lol sorry
To find the part of a yard that is equal to 1 1/2 ft, we need to remember that there are 3 feet in a yard. So, to convert 1 1/2 ft to yards, we divide it by 3. The calculation is as follows:
1 1/2 ft ÷ 3 ft/yard = 0.5 yard
Therefore, 1 1/2 ft is equal to 0.5 yard.
Moving on to the second part of the question, 1 rod is a unit of length equal to 16.5 feet. To find the part of a mile that 1 rod represents, we need to know that there are 5,280 feet in a mile. Thus, the calculation is as follows:
1 rod ÷ 16.5 ft/rod = 0.0606... rod
Therefore, 1 rod represents approximately 0.0606... part of a mile.
Now, let's find out what part of a mile is represented by different numbers of rods:
40 rods x 0.060606... rod = approximately 2.4242... rods = 2.4242... x 16.5 ft/rod = approximately 40 feet
So, 40 rods represent approximately 40 feet, which is approximately 0.007... part of a mile.
Similarly:
80 rods x 0.060606... rod = approximately 4.8484... rods = 4.8484... x 16.5 ft/rod = approximately 80 feet
Thus, 80 rods represent approximately 80 feet, which is approximately 0.015... part of a mile.
Finally:
160 rods x 0.060606... rod = approximately 9.6969... rods = 9.6969... x 16.5 ft/rod = approximately 160 feet
Hence, 160 rods represent approximately 160 feet, which is approximately 0.0303... part of a mile.
