Note that

1 yd = 0.9144 m

Therefore,

The length of an American Football field is

(100 yds) * (09144 m/yd) = 91.44 m

Because the soccer field is 110 m long, its length exceeds the American Football Field by

100 - 91.44 = 8.56 m

or

(8.56/.9144) = 9.36 yd

This difference is equivalent to (8.56/91.44) * 100 = 9.4%

Answer:

The Soccer Field is longer by

8.56 m, or

9.36 yd, or

9.4%
