What’s the Error?

  • Question 13 (request help)

    The Redwood National Park is home to some of the largest trees in the world. Hyperion is the tallest tree in the park, with a height of approximately 379 feet. Tom wants to find the height of the tree in yards.

    Tom converted the height this way :

    3 feet = 1 yard

    conversion factor : \(\cfrac{3\text{ ft}}{1\text{ yd}}\)

    \(\cfrac{379\text{ ft}}{1}\times\cfrac{3\text{ ft}}{1\text{ yd}} = 1,137\text{ yd}\)

    Find and describe Tom’s error.

    Show how to correctly convert from 379 feet to yards.

    Explain how you knew Tom’s answer was incorrect.
