Question

What is 5.6 x 10^-3yd/year in feet per day?
answers:
6.813 x 10^-7
6.132 x 10^-6
5 x 10^-6
4.6 x 10^-5

Answer 1

so convert to feet by multiplying by 3

so 3 * 5.6 x 10^-3 feet/year

1 year is 365 days so it can be written as

\[3 \times 5.6 \times 10^{-3} feet/365 days\]

divide by 365 to get feet per day

\[\frac{3 \times 5.6 \times 10^{-3}}{365}~~ feet/day\]

just calculate it out
