Answer:

  • 432 inches

Explanation:

Given:

  • Dwayne = 12 yards

Conversion: 1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches

Use the unitary method and solve:


  • \implies \text{1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches}

  • \implies 1 * 12 \ \text{yard} = 3 * 12 \ \text{feet} = 36 * 12 \ \text{inches}

  • \implies 12 \ \text{yards} = 36 \ \text{feet} = 432 \ \text{inches}

Thus, Dwayne bought 432 inches of wrapping paper.
