Answer:

The number of yards is 792.

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.
