To find the number of centimeters in 1 yard, the best path is:
**A. Yards to inches to centimeters.**
Here’s why:
1. **Convert yards to inches**: Since 1 yard = 36 inches (because there are 3 feet in a yard and 12 inches in a foot, so 3 feet x 12 inches/foot = 36 inches).
2. **Convert inches to centimeters**: Use the conversion factor 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters.
So, the calculation would be:
- \(1 \text{ yard} = 36 \text{ inches}\)
- \(36 \text{ inches} \times 2.54 \text{ cm/inch} = 91.44 \text{ cm}\)
Thus, 1 yard is equal to 91.44 centimeters. This process utilizes direct and straightforward conversions.
