.4444 yd/day

Explanation:

For this you need to convert the feet into yards. Using some dimensional analysis and knowing the conversion units we can calculate.

32ft32ftxx×(.3333yd)/(1ft).3333yd1ft = 10.67 yd10.67yd

Next is to convert from hours to days. knowing that there are 24 hours in a day will make this conversion somewhat harmless.

Then we set up the math problem: (10.67yd)/(24hours)10.67yd24hours = (.4444yd)/(day).4444ydday
(notice our units are correct.)

32 ("ft")/("hr") = 256 ("yd")/("day")32fthr=256ydday

Explanation:

(32 "ft")/(1 "hr") xx (24 "hr")/(1 "day") xx (1 "yd")/(3 "ft")32ft1hr×24hr1day×1yd3ft

=(32 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("ft"))))/(1 color(blue)(cancel(color(black)("hr")))) xx (24 color(blue)(cancel(color(black)("hr"))))/(1 "day") xx (1 "yd")/(3 color(red)(cancel(color(black)("ft")))

=32/1 xx (cancel(24)^8)/(1 "day") xx (1 "yd")/(cancel(3))

= 256 ("yd")/("day")
