About the yard and the foot
A yard is 3 feet, or 36 inches. It measures an American football field (100 yards between the goal lines), fabric lengths in the US and UK, golf shots and some road distances in the UK.
The foot is divided into 12 inches and is used for personal height in the US and UK, building dimensions in the US and aircraft altitude worldwide: airliners cruise at roughly 35,000 feet.
One yard equals 3 feet, which makes the yard the longer unit of the two.
