Jaden is in charge of building a dance floor for the school dance. He wants to build the largest dance floor that he can while staying within the budget. His plan is to buy wooden planks and lay them side by side on the grass just outside the gym. A plank that 2 inches thick, 4 inches wide, and 8 feet long costs $3.25. How large of a dance floor, in square yards, can he build with $526.50?
