A lawn can be mowed at an average of 44 square feet per minute. Which is closest to this rate in square yards per second?
\n" ); document.write( " a - 0.01
\n" ); document.write( " b - 0.08
\n" ); document.write( " c - 0.24
\n" ); document.write( " d - 0.31
\n" ); document.write( "I have done this problem multiple times and keep coming up with answer c - 0.24
\n" ); document.write( " It says the answer is b - 0.08
\n" ); document.write( " ----------
\n" ); document.write( "Note:
\n" ); document.write( "1 sq ft = 1/27 sq yd = 0.03704 sq yd
\n" ); document.write( "1 minute = 60 sec
\n" ); document.write( "37----------
\n" ); document.write( "Your Problem:
\n" ); document.write( "44sq ft/min)*(0.03704 sq yd/sq ft)(1 min/60 sec)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "= (44*0.03704*1)/(1*1*60) = 0.02716 sq yd/sec
\n" ); document.write( "===========
