Step-by-step explanation:

The soccer field at a park is 9,000 square yards. The soccer field takes up 6 2/5 square inches on the map of the park. How many square yards does 1 square inch on the map represent? Show your work. Help me pls

Given that:

Area of soccer field = 9000 sq yards

Soccer field takes up 6 2/5 square inches on the map of park

Hence,

9000 yd² = 6 2/5 in²

Let 1 in² on map = m

9000 yd² = 32/5 in² - - - (1)

m = 1 in² - - - (2)

Cross multiply ;

6.4 * m = 9000

m = 9000/6.4

m = 1406.25

Hence,

1 in² on map = 1406.25 feet²

900
