Answer: 16000 square yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Well convert 48,000 feet to yards to find the area in square yards.

It says that

3 ft is 1 yards  so you can set up the proportional equation and  solve for how many yards there will be.

[tex]\frac{48000}{3} = \frac{x}{1}[/tex]     cross product to solve for x

3x = 48000

x= 16000  

So there are 16000 square yards for 48000 square feet
