    Frog 1 - 8 feet 3 inches =

    8 feet x (1 yard/3 feet) = 2.667 Yards

    3 inches x (1 foot / 12 inches) x (1 yard / 3 feet) = 0.83 yards

    So Frog 1 = 2.75 Yard

    Frog 2 - 2 yards 36 inches

    36 inches x (1 foot / 12 inches) x (1 yard / 3 feet) = 1 Yard

    So Frog 2 = 3 yards

    Frog 2 won

    It won by 3 - 2.75 = 0.25 Yards

    0.25 yards x (3 feet / 1 yard) = 0.75 feet

    0.75 feet x (12 inches / 1 foot) = 9 inches

    So Frog 2 won by 9 inches
