PROBLEM

Perform the indicated operation. Simplify the result if possible.
6yd2fl×46 \mathrm{yd} 2 \mathrm{fl} \times 4

STEP 1

1. The expression 6yd2fl6 \mathrm{yd} 2 \mathrm{fl} represents a mixed measurement of yards and feet.
2. The operation involves multiplying this mixed measurement by 44.
3. There are 33 feet in 11 yard.

STEP 2

1. Convert the mixed measurement to a single unit.
2. Perform the multiplication.
3. Convert the result back to a mixed measurement, if necessary.

STEP 3

Convert 6yd2fl6 \mathrm{yd} 2 \mathrm{fl} entirely into feet.
First, convert yards to feet:
6yd×3ftyd=18ft 6 \mathrm{yd} \times 3 \frac{\mathrm{ft}}{\mathrm{yd}} = 18 \mathrm{ft} Add the additional feet:
18ft+2ft=20ft 18 \mathrm{ft} + 2 \mathrm{ft} = 20 \mathrm{ft}

STEP 4

Multiply the total feet by 44.
20ft×4=80ft 20 \mathrm{ft} \times 4 = 80 \mathrm{ft}

SOLUTION

Convert 80ft80 \mathrm{ft} back to yards and feet.
Divide the total feet by 33 to find the number of yards:
80÷3=26 yards with a remainder of 2 feet 80 \div 3 = 26 \text{ yards with a remainder of } 2 \text{ feet} Thus, 80ft80 \mathrm{ft} is equivalent to 26yd2fl26 \mathrm{yd} 2 \mathrm{fl}.
The simplified result of the operation is:
26yd2fl\boxed{26 \mathrm{yd} 2 \mathrm{fl}}
