The correct answer is: $3$
Explanation
A yard is a standard length unit equal to three feet. You can also see this from inches: 1 yard = 36 inches and 1 foot = 12 inches, so $36\\text{ in} \\div 12\\text{ in/ft} = 3\\text{ ft}$.
Steps:
- $$1\\text{ yd} = 36\\text{ in}$$
- $$1\\text{ ft} = 12\\text{ in}$$
- $$36\\text{ in} \\div 12\\text{ in/ft} = 3\\text{ ft}$$
Therefore, 1 yard = 3 feet.
