Convert feet into square yards

Divide by 9.

There are 9 square feet in 1 square yard.

To figure this out, you must know that there are 3 feet in a yard. You know a square yard is a 1 yard by one yard square. You can convert the yards into feet, meaning that a square yard is 3 feet by 3 feet. Multiply those together and you get 9 feet sq., which is your answer.
