0.9 yds
1.2 yds

1.0 yds

The correct answer is: 0.9 yds

The conversion factor from yards to meters is approximately 0.9144. When looking at the answer choices you provided, the choice indicating 0.9 yards as equivalent to 1 meter is the closest approximation. In a conversion context, if you were to convert yards to meters, you'd typically use the value of 1 yard equaling about 0.9144 meters. While the options presented do not contain the exact conversion, the value closest to this would represent an understanding of how yards relate to meters. Thus, the significance of having a figure around 0.9 indicates a rough approximation, which aligns best with the actual conversion of yards to meters.
