How many yards (yd) are in 1 inch (in)? What is the formula for how to convert yards to inches (yd to in)?

1 yard (yd) = 36 inches (in)
So we can say that there is 36 inches in 1 yard.
This means that the multiplication conversion factor to convert a quantity expressed in a yard unit of measurement to an equivalent quantity expressed in an inch unit of measurement is 36.

Inversely (or reciprocally),

1 inch (in) = 0.027777777777778 yard (yd)
So we can say that there is 0.027777777777778 yard in 1 inch.
This means that the division conversion factor to convert a quantity expressed in a yard unit of measurement to an equivalent quantity expressed in an inch unit of measurement is 0.027777777777778.

Knowing this inverse mathematical relationship between the two conversion factors and their reciprocal operations, we can derive two formulas to calculate and convert a quantity of length expressed in yards to an equivalent quantity of length expressed in inches (yd to in). Both formulas will yield the same result. The formulas are:

in = yd × 36    → This is the formula based on the multiplication conversion factor.

and

in = yd ÷ 0.027777777777778    → This is the formula based on the division conversion factor.

For example, if you have a length of 120 yards that you want to convert to inches, you would use either of the two formulas as follows:

in = 120 yd × 36 = 4,320 in
in = 120 yd ÷ 0.027777777777778 = 4,320 in

So, the result is the same using either formula, which is 4,320 inches.
