Recall the conversion rule for inches to yards:


\begin{gathered} 1\text{ }yard\to36\text{ }inches \\ 1\text{ }yard\to3\text{ }feet \\ 1\text{ }feet\to12\text{ }inches \end{gathered}

Therefore, we can make the following conversions:

Question A: 188 in. to yd

To convert, divide the number in inches by 36:


\Rightarrow(188)/(36)=(47)/(9)

Therefore, the answer is:


188\text{ }in.=(47)/(9)\text{ }yd

Question B: 500 yds to in.

To convert, we multiply the number by 36:


\Rightarrow500*36=18000

Therefore, the answer is:


500\text{ }yd=18000\text{ }inches

Question C: 630 ft to yd

To convert, we will divide the number by 3:


\Rightarrow(630)/(3)=210

Therefore, the answer is:


630\text{ }ft=210\text{ }yds

Question D: 468 in. to ft

To convert, we divide the number by 12:


\Rightarrow(468)/(12)=39

Therefore, the answer is:


468\text{ }in.=39\text{ }ft
