Answer:

162 inches

Explanation:

There are 3 feet in a yard.

There are 12 inches in a foot.

3*12=36

There are 36 inches in a yard.

The length of the rectangle is 4 1/2 yards.

Convert to improper fraction to multiply more easily.

4 1/2 = 9/2

Multiply. (Denominators together, numerators together)

9/2*36=324/2

Simplify

162
