The problem asks us to convert the length of the altitude of a triangular billboard from feet to yards, given that 1 yard is equal to 3 feet. The context is part (b) of a larger problem asking for the dimensions of the triangular billboard in yards. The "Try again" message suggests an error was made in a previous attempt.

1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to convert the length of the altitude of a triangular billboard from feet to yards, given that 1 yard is equal to 3 feet. The context is part (b) of a larger problem asking for the dimensions of the triangular billboard in yards. The "Try again" message suggests an error was made in a previous attempt.

2. Solution Steps

To convert the altitude from feet to yards, we need to divide the length in feet by the conversion factor, which is 3 feet per yard.
1 yard=3 feet1 \text{ yard} = 3 \text{ feet}
So, to convert from feet to yards, we use the formula:
yards=feet3\text{yards} = \frac{\text{feet}}{3}
The problem doesn't explicitly state the altitude in feet, but it implicitly suggests this is the next step required to obtain the solution to the original problem.

3. Final Answer

The method to convert the altitude from feet to yards is to divide the altitude in feet by

3. The problem can't be solved without the altitude in feet being provided.
