What is the area of a football field?

Question

A football field is 100 yards long (1 yard is very close to the length of a meter), by 53 yards wide. 

Answer 1

Not sure why this is posted in Chemistry.  Nonetheless, here goes.

Area is length x width.

Length = 100 yds

Width = 53 yds

Area = 100 yds x 53 yds = 5300 square yards.

If you want the area in square feet, convert yards to feet:

Length = 100 yds x 3 ft/yd = 300 feet

Width = 53 yds x 3 f/yd = 159 feet

Area = 300 ft x 159 ft = 47,700 square feet
