Answer:

There are 182.88 cm in 2 yards.

Explanation:

Given that,

1 inch = 2.54 cm

We need to find how many centimeters are there in 2 yards.

We know that,

1 yard = 36 inch

⇒ 2 yards = (2×36) inches

= 72 inches

It means,

72 inches = (72 × 2.54) cm

= 182.88 cm

Hence, there are 182.88 cm in 2 yards.
