10 yards = 30 feet
The ratio of 16 feet to 10 yards is thus 16 to 30.
All you need to do once the units match is simplify the ratio.
16:30 = 8:15

16 feet : 10 yards
= 16 feet : 30 feet
= 16:30
= 8:15.
When the units are the same on each side of the equation, you can cancel them from the ratio.

translation tip
Ratio of N to M = N/M
(both M and M of the same unit)
conversion formula:
1 yard = 3 feet
10 yards = 10 * (1yard) = 10 * (3 feet) = 30 feet
ratio of 16 feet to 10 yards
ratio of (16 feet) to (30 feet)
= 16 /30
= 8/15
