Answer:

ratio of yards to minutes is;

900:10 or 90:1

Step-by-step explanation:

From research, the average person walks at around 3 miles per hour which approximately 1.5 yards/s.

Now, 60 seconds make a minute.

Which means in a minute, an average person will have walked; 1.5 × 60 = 90 yards/minute

Thus, in 10 minutes, average person will have walked; 90 × 10 = 900 yards

Thus, ratio of yards to minutes is;

900:10 or 90:1
