Answer

Soccer; 9.4 yd; 8.6m; 9.4%

Work Step by Step

Football field: $100.0 yd\times \frac{1m}{1.094 yd}=91.4 m$ 100.0 yd = 91.4 m Soccer field: $100.0 m\times \frac{1yd}{0.9144 yd}=109.4 yd$ 109.4 yd = 100.0 m Soccer field is longer by: 109.4 yd - 100.0 yd = 9.4 yd 100.0 m - 91.4 m = 8.6 m $\frac{109.4 yd-100.0 yd}{100.0 yd}\times100$% = 9.4% $\frac{100.0 m-91.4 m}{91.4 m}\times100$% = 9.4%
