Respuesta :

1 square meter = 1.196 square yards.

Multiple total square meters by 1.196:

16 x 1.196 = 19.134

The closest answer is b. 20 square yards.

Answer:

b. [tex]16 \ m^{2}=19.13584 \ (y d)^{2} \approx \bold{20 \ (y d)^{2}}[/tex]

Given:

16 square meters

Solution:

The square meter and the square yards conversion is:

[tex]1 \ m^{2}=1.19599 \ (y d)^{2}[/tex]

The “square meter” is the unit of the area which is equal to the square with the one meter as its side.

The “square yard” is also a unit of area which is equal to the square with the one yard as its side.

Now, from the question,

[tex]\Rightarrow 16 \times 1 \ m^{2}=16 \times 1.19599 \ (y d)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore 16 \ m^{2}=19.13584 \ (y d)^{2}[/tex]
