For example how many yards with inches left over in 37 inches? 37/36=1 R 1 or 37 inches divides into one group of 1 yard (36) with 1 left over (remainder is the inches left over. Or simply take I/36=Y (any answer with a remainder is number of inches left over). I=inches you wish to find out how many yards are in, the number of inches must be 36 or more for this to work correctly. R I =if its a remainder the remainder is the number of inches left over 38/36=1 r 2 38 inches have one yard (36) and 2 inches left over
