How many inches are in one yard?

24 inches
30 inches
36 inches
48 inches

The correct answer is: 24 inches

One yard is equal to 36 inches. This is a standard conversion in measurements, where 1 yard consists of 3 feet and each foot contains 12 inches. Therefore, when you multiply 3 feet by 12 inches per foot (3 x 12), you arrive at 36 inches in a yard. Understanding this basic measurement is important for various practical applications, such as construction, fabric measurements, and everyday tasks involving distance.
