Answer 1

`6.75\text{ yards = 243 inches}`

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert 6.75 yards into inches;

Using the hint;

3 feet = 1 yard

12 inches = 1 foot

To convert from yard to inches we will need to firstly convert to feet using the hint;

`\begin{gathered} 3feet=1yard \\ 6.75\text{ yards = 6.75}*3\text{ feet = 20.25 feet} \\ \end{gathered}`

then let's convert from feet to inches;

`\begin{gathered} 12inches=1foot \\ 20.25\text{ feet = 20.25}*12\text{ inches} \\ =243\text{ inches} \end{gathered}`

Therefore;

`6.75\text{ yards = 243 inches}`
