    Jeremy: 5 yards, 2 feet, 3 inches

    John: 9 yards, 1 foot, 10 inches

    You need to find how many inches Jeremy and John ran. There are 36 inches in a yard, so multiply 5 yards by 36.

    (5) (36) = 180 inches

    There are 12 inches in a foot, so multiply 2 feet by 12.

    (2) (12) = 24 inches

    Add 180 and 24 inches to 3 inches.

    180 + 24 + 3 = 207 inches

    Jeremy ran 207 inches.

    Now for John:

    Multiply 9 yards by 36 inches.

    (9) (36) = 324 inches

    1 foot = 12 inches

    Add 324 and 12 inches to 10 inches.

    324 + 12 + 10 = 346 inches

    John ran 346 inches.

    Subtract Jeremy's run from John's.

    346 - 207 = 139 inches

    John ran 139 inches farther than Jeremy.

    5 yards 2 feet 3 inches:

    1 yard=36 inches; 5 yards=180 inches

    1 foot=12 inches; 2 feet=24 inches

    180+24+3=207 inches

    9 yards 1 foot 10 inches:

    9 yards=324 inches

    1 foot=12 inches

    324+12+10=346 inches

    346-207=139 inches

    John ran 139 inches fartheer than Jeremy
