1 yard = 36 inches

27 inches each for 6 bird houses equals 162 inches.

162/36 = 4.5 or 4 and one-half yards.

ANSWER: 4.5 yards.

Jeremy uses 27 inches of board for each birdhouse so by proportion. So, we have to calculate how many inches of board does he need to make 6 birdhouses.

27/1 (27 is inches) (1 birdhouse)

x/6 (x is inches) (6 birdhouses)

x = 6 * 27

x = 162 inches

Now, convert inches to yard:

1 yard is equal to 36 inches.

So,

162 inches =

162/36 = 4.5 yards.
