How to Convert Yards Square to Feet Square
Example: How many feet square are equivalent to 17.59 yards square?
As;
1 yards square = 9 feet square
17.59 yards square = Y feet square
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 17.59 times 9 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 17.59 * 9 / 1 = 158.31 feet square
Answer is: 158.31 feet square are equivalent to 17.59 yards square.
