  8. Explanation I collected my data by looking the buildings up on the internet. To convert feet to yards, I did the number of feet divided by 3 because there are 3 feet in a yard. To convert feet into miles, I did 5,280 (the number of feet in a mile) divided by the number of feet. However many times it goes into was the denominator and 1 was the numerator. That is how I got my data and converted my measurements.
