Converting feet into yards.
Recall that one yard =3 feet
[tex]1\text{ yard=3 f}eet[/tex]
Multiply by 5/3 on both sides, we get
[tex]1\times\frac{5}{3}\text{ yard=3 }\times\frac{5}{3}\text{f}eet[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{3}\text{ yard=}5\text{f}eet[/tex][tex]\text{Use }\frac{5}{3}=1\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]1\frac{2}{3}\text{ yard=}5\text{f}eet[/tex]
The answer is
[tex]1\frac{2}{3}\text{ yards}[/tex]
