Assuming you have a 'square' material, 1 square yard = 36 in x 36 in. Going across with 5": 36" / 5" = 7 with 1inch remain.
Down with 7": 36" / 7" = 5 with 1inch remain. So 5x7 = 35.
If you had 30.857 inches x 42 inches of material, then you can get 36.
42" / 7" = 6 exactly, and 30.857" / 5" = 6 with 0.857" remaining. 6x6 = 36.
We have to presume you want to find out "what 480 sq feet is in 'SQUARE' yards. If it is square yards that you want to convert to you have to determine how many square feet there are in a square yard. A yard is 3 feet long a square yard is 3 feet by 3 feet, so to determine square feet in a square yard you multiply 3X3 to determine that there are 9 sq.ft in a sq.yard. So divide the 480 sq. feet that you have by the 9 sq. feet in a sq. yard: 480/9 = 53 1/3 square yards.There are other uses of the term yard which could apply, though. Fabric, for example, is measured in running yards (by a specific width of the bolt of fabric). The width could vary between 32 and 60 inches, depending on the fabric. So if you're trying to cover 480 square feet with fabric, then you would need more information. See related link below, about how fabric is measured.

So a square yard is (1 yd)2 = (3 ft)2 = 9 ft2 Then there is a yard of fabric, which is one yard (36 inches) long by the width of the bolt (roll of fabric).From eHow.com :'. . . the fabric on a bolt of cloth can vary from 32, 34, 36, 45, 54 and 60 inches in width. The most common widths are 45 and 60 inches.'So a 'yard of fabric' is usually not a square yard. See related link.
