Answer: 162 inches.
Step-by-step explanation: Let's first convert 4.5 yards to feet.
Since there are 3 feet in 1 yard, we multiply 4.5 by 3 to get 13.5 feet.
To convert 13.5 feet into inches, first start with the
conversion factor for feet and inches which is below.
12 inches = 1 foot
Next, notice that we're going from a larger unit,
feet, to a smaller unit, inches.
Since we're going from a larger unit to a smaller unit, we multiply.
So we multiply 13.5 by the conversion factor, 12, to get 162.
So 4.5 yards is equivalent to 162 inches.
