A. 46 2/3 Yards
B. 64 1/5 Yards
C. 66 yards
D. 37 1/3 yards

Answered by maham237 @


Given:
Cheshire Road Shelby Road
Plot 1 40 yards 48 yards
Plot 3 x 56 yards


To solve for x, we get the ratio and proportion of both plots.

40/48 = x/56

Do cross multiplication.

40 * 56 = 48 * x
2,240 = 48x
2,240/48 = 48x/48
46.67 = x

Plot 3 of Chesire Road measures 46.67 or 46 2/3 yards. Choice A.
