27.75+2(27.75)/3=46.25ft

46.25ft(yd/3ft)≈15.42yd

Marvin have 15.40125 total yards of hose now

Further explanation

There are 7 main quantities that have been determined based on international standards, namely:

  • 1. Length, meters (m)
  • 2. Time, second (s)
  • 3. Mass, kilograms (kg)
  • 4. Temperature, kelvin (K)
  • 5. Light intensity, candela (cd)
  • 6. Electric current, ampere (A)
  • 7. Amount of substance, mol (m)

The length indicate the distance between two points in a place

The symbol is usually expressed in l, length

Length measurement can be used by several measuring instruments such as ruler / ruler, caliper length, meter, screw micrometer

The main length unit consists of 7 units other than other units of length such as inches, miles, yards, feet:

  • Kilometer, km
  • Hectometer, hm
  • Dekameter, dam
  • Meter, m
  • Decimeter, dm
  • centimeter, cm
  • millimeters, mm

Each one unit descends then multiplied by 10, and if one unit increases then divided by 10

English units are the units that were used in England

For the length , the standart from English unit is yard

The conversions between units:

1 m =

a. 1.09361 yard

b. 6.214.10⁻⁴ mile

c. 3.2808 foot

d. 39.3701 inch

Marvin buys a hose 27 3/4 feet

He already owns a hose at home that is 2/3 the length of the new hose, so the total length of a hose  :

[tex]{\displaystyle = {27\frac {3} {4}}+{(\frac{2}{3}\:\times\:27\frac{3}{4}) }[/tex]

=[tex]{\displaystyle = {\frac {1110} {24}}}[/tex]

[tex]{\displaystyle = {46\frac {1} {4}}\:feet}[/tex]

We convert to yard

1 feet = 0.333 yard

[tex]46\frac{1}{4} \times\: 0.333[/tex]

= 15.40125 yard
