Choice B is correct. Since 1 mile is equal to 1,760 yards, 1 square mile is equal to 1,7602 , or 3,097,600, square yards. It’s given that the park has an area of 11,863,808 square yards. Therefore, the park has an area of (11,863,808 square yards) (1 square mile3,097,600 square yards ), or 11,863,8083,097,600 square miles. Thus, the area, in square miles, of the park is 3.83 .
Choice A is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors. Choice C is incorrect. This is the square root of the area of the park in square yards, not the area of the park in square miles. Choice D is incorrect and may result from converting 11,863,808 yards to miles, rather than converting 11,863,808 square yards to square miles.
