To find the number of centimeters in 1 yard, the best path would be:
yards Right-arrow feet Right-arrow inches Right-arrow centimeters
Here’s how the conversion works step by step:
-
Convert yards to feet: \[ 1 \text{ yard} = 3 \text{ feet} \]
-
Convert feet to inches: \[ 1 \text{ foot} = 12 \text{ inches} \] \[ 3 \text{ feet} = 3 \times 12 = 36 \text{ inches} \]
-
Convert inches to centimeters: \[ 1 \text{ inch} = 2.54 \text{ centimeters} \] \[ 36 \text{ inches} = 36 \times 2.54 = 91.44 \text{ centimeters} \]
Thus, there are 91.44 centimeters in 1 yard.
