write a function that converts an input distance in feet into a distance in yards and feet (1 yard= 3 feet). for example a distance of 11 feet would be 3 yards and 2 feet in matlab

You can write a function in Matlab to convert distance in feet to yards and feet as follows:

main.m
function [yards, feet] = convert_feet_to_yards(distance_feet)
% This function converts distance in feet to yards and feet

% Convert distance to yards and feet
yards = floor(distance_feet / 3);
feet = distance_feet - yards * 3;

% Display the result
fprintf('%d feet is equal to %d yards and %d feet\n', distance_feet, yards, feet);
end

Explanation:

• The input to the function is distance_feet.
• The conversion is done by dividing the distance in feet by 3 to get the distance in yards and taking the floor to get the integer value of yards. The remaining feet can be calculated by subtracting the yards multiplied by 3 from the original distance in feet.
• The fprintf statement displays the result in the desired format.
• You can call the function with any distance in feet, for example convert_feet_to_yards(11) would output "11 feet is equal to 3 yards and 2 feet".
