Answer:

The number of yards is 792.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 0.45 miles to yards it is necessary to use the equivalence from mile to feet, and then the equivalence from feet to yard:


0.45\text{miles}\cdot(\frac{5,280feet}{1\text{mile}})\cdot(\frac{1\text{yard}}{3\text{feet}})=792\text{yards}

So, it is 792 yards.
