You have to look at the units to formulate the correct equation.
Since you want to convert from yards to inches, and you know there are 36 inches per yard, use this equation:
4.5 yd * 36 in/yd = 162 in.
It helps to have the units shown in the equation because then you can see that the 'yd' in the numerator and 'yd' in the denominator cancel out and you are left with inches.

You are talking about four and one half yards. A yard is 36 inches. 4x36= 144 inches. One half a yard is 18 inches (36 divided by 2). Add 144 inches and 18 inches, and you have your answer of 162 inches. Hope that this helps.
