Best Answer

Divide by 9.

There are 9 square feet in 1 square yard.

To figure this out, you must know that there are 3 feet in a yard. You know a square yard is a 1 yard by one yard square. You can convert the yards into feet, meaning that a square yard is 3 feet by 3 feet. Multiply those together and you get 9 feet sq., which is your answer.

None, since there can be no conversion. An yard is a measure of length in 1-dimensional space while a square foot is a measure of area in 2-dimensional space. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.

There are 3 feet in a yard. Area is lenght multiplied by width. So 3 feet multiplied by 3 feet is 9 squared feet. There are 9 square feet in a square yard.

A foot is a unit of distance. A square yard is a unit of area. The two units are therefore incompatible.
