Solution Steps

To convert meters to yards, we use the conversion factor where 1 meter is approximately equal to 1.09361 yards. Multiply the given value in meters by this conversion factor to get the value in yards. Finally, round the result to 2 decimal places.

Step 1: Conversion Factor

To convert meters to yards, we use the conversion factor: \[ 1 \, \text{meter} \approx 1.09361 \, \text{yards} \]

Step 2: Calculate Yards

We multiply the given value in meters by the conversion factor: \[ \text{yards} = 8 \, \text{meters} \times 1.09361 \, \text{yards/meter} = 8.74888 \, \text{yards} \]

Step 3: Round to Two Decimal Places

We round the result to two decimal places: \[ \text{yards rounded} = 8.75 \, \text{yards} \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{8.75}\)
