Zhang is designing protective packaging. He tests his design by dropping a raw egg protected by his packaging from various heights. He finds that the egg is protected up to a height of 11 meters. Zhang needs to convert the height from meters to yards for his report. Unit of LengthCustomary System UnitsMetric System Units1 inch2.54 centimeters1 foot0.3048 meters1 mile1.61 kilometersHow many yards can the packaged egg drop without breaking? Use the table to find the answer. Round to the nearest hundredth.
A yard is 3 feet, and the table shows that 1 foot is 0.3048 meters. So 1 yard equals 3 × 0.3048 = 0.9144 meters. Convert 11 meters to yards: 11 ÷ 0.9144 ≈ 12.03 yards, so the answer is 12.03 yards.
