If you have to explain this is how I got my answer.
I converted the 468 inches to feet. Then I subtracted the 468 inches ( after I converted it) from 279 ft and then you divide it by 3 with the number you got from subtracting you get the amount of yards.

how many feet in a yard? how many inches in a yard? These are conversion numbers that (at least in my day) one should have memorized.
anyway there are 3 feet in a yard and 36 inches in a yard.
so we convert feet to yards by dividing by 3 and inches to yards by dividing by 36, so we end up with:
93 yds - 13yds = 80 yards
Change inches into feet subtract and divide by 3..
Bam there's your answer..
But your really stupid
