You miss the opportunity to learn how to do these problems yourself if you just ask for answers.  Please don't do that.

Convert 5 m into yd:  One way of doing this would be to determine from a reference book or calculator how many feet go into 1 meter.  If you went into a browser window and entered "1 meter = ft," you'd get the appropriate conversion factor for meters to feet:

1 meter = 3.28 feet

Next, convert 5 meters into yards.  You'll need an additional conversion factor:

1 yd = 3 feet, and 
                                                                3.28 ft
Then 5 m times the conversion factor ------------- results in 16.4 feet
                                                                  1 m

We are to convert 5 m into yards.  Therefore, take this 16.4 feet and mult.
it by the appropriate conversion factor:

16.4 ft      1 yd
--------- * -------- = 5.47 yd (answer)
     1         3 ft
