Q. A certain town has an area of 44.3636 square miles. What is the area, in square yards, of this town? ( 11 mile =1,760 =1,760 yards)\newlineA) 404404 1,760×4.36=7,673 1,760 \times 4.36=7,673 \newlineB) 77,674674\newlineC) 710710,459459\newline\newlineD) 13,505,536 13,505,536
  1. Convert to square yards: Convert the area from square miles to square yards using the conversion factor 11 mile =1,760= 1,760 yards.\newlineArea in square yards == Area in square miles ×(1,760\times (1,760 yards/mile) ×(1,760\times (1,760 yards/mile)
  2. Calculate square yards: Calculate the area in square yards.\newlineArea in square yards = 4.36 square miles×(1,760 yards/mile)×(1,760 yards/mile)4.36 \text{ square miles} \times (1,760 \text{ yards/mile}) \times (1,760 \text{ yards/mile})
  3. Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication to find the area in square yards. Area in square yards = 4.36×1,760×1,7604.36 \times 1,760 \times 1,760
  4. Calculate product: Calculate the product.\newlineArea in square yards = 13,505,53613,505,536
