Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. We know that 1 yard is 36 inches, therefore, 50 yards expressed in inches is:
(50)(36)=1800in
2. If he is 50 yards from school and the map shows that the school is 34 inches from his current location, when it shows 3 inches the real distance is:
(1800)(3in)/24in=158.82
3. If you can to express it in yards:
158.82/36=4.41yd
Therefore, the answer is: 158.82 inches or 4.41 yards.
