3 yd = 9 ft
6 inches is 1/2 foot, and 1 yd = 3 ft: (4.5 ft)/ (3 ft/yd) = 1.5 yd
9 ft
3 yd 1 ft
There are 3 ft in 1 yd ... SO (3 ft/yd) x 1760 yd = 5,280 ft (which equals 1 US mile)
6 ft / 3 ft/yd = 2 yd
3 ft = 1 yd → 8 ft = 8 ÷ 3 yd = 2 2/3 yd ≈ 2.67 yd
3 ft = 1 yd volume = 12 ft x 12 ft x 2 ft = 12 ÷ 3 yd x 12 ÷ 3 yd x 2 ÷ 3 yd = 10 2/3 cu yd ≈ 10.67 cu yd
1 yard = 3 ft so 8 yd + 2 ft = 24+2 = 26 feet.
4 remainder 2 3 ft = 1 yd → 14 ft = 14 ÷ 3 = 4 2/3 yd.
1 yd = 3 ft9 yd = (9 x 3) = 27 ft9 yd + 2 ft = 27 ft + 2 ft = 29 ft
If 12-ft were equal to 12-yd, then there would be no earthly reason to have two different names for the same unit of length. 1 yd = 3 ft 12 yd = 36 ft 12 ft = 4 yd
