A yard is equal to 3 feet.

Explanation

  • One yard measures exactly 3 feet or 36 inches in length.
  • This unit is used in both the US customary system and the British imperial system of measurement.
  • The international definition of a yard is precisely 0.9144 meters, which converts to 3 feet exactly.

This means whenever converting yards to feet, multiply the number of yards by 3 (feet = yards × 3).
