Can you convert it?

Algebra Level 1

The following are some linear measurement conversions.

3 feet = 1 yard \text{3 feet = 1 yard}

16.5 feet = 1 rod \text{16.5 feet = 1 rod}

660 feet = 1 furlong \text{660 feet = 1 furlong}

How many r o d s rods is 3 3 furlongs?


The answer is 120.

1 furlong = 660/16.5 = 40 rods,

so 3 furlongs = 3 * 40 = 120 rods.

1 furlong = 660/16.5 = 40 rods, so 3 furlongs = 3 * 40 = 120 rods.

I'd like to add to your list: 1 nail = 7.92 inches, 25 nails = 1 rod, 8 furlongs = 1 mile
