what is the sum of 6 yards and 7 feet

In feet~

To convert 6 yards and 7 feet into feet, turn yards into feet. There are 3 feet per yard. so 6 yards would be 3*6 feet = 18 feet. then add all the feet together. 18 feet + 7 feet = 25 feet

25 feet

In yards~

To convert 6 yards and 7 feet into yards, turn feet into yards. There are 3 feet per yard or 1/3 yard per feet since 1 foot is 1/3 of a yard. So 7 feet would be 7/3 feet = 2 and 1/3 yards. then add all the yards together. 2 1/2 yards + 6 yards = 8 1/2 yards

8 1/2 yards
