Final answer:

The answer provides the width of the whiteboard in inches and yards based on conversion factors for feet, inches, and yards.


Explanation:

1. How many inches wide is the whiteboard?
To find the width of the whiteboard in inches, we know that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. Therefore, 4.5 feet x 12 inches/foot = 54 inches. So, the whiteboard is 54 inches wide.

2. How many yards wide is the whiteboard?
To determine the width of the whiteboard in yards, we use the fact that 1 yard is equal to 3 feet. So, 4.5 feet / 3 feet/yard = 1.5 yards. Therefore, the whiteboard is 1.5 yards wide.
