How much fabric do I need?

I wanted to have vinyl purple gingham table clothes for my outdoor reception and I've found some on the web but I'm not use to looking at yardage. If I need enough fabric to cover 12 54'' tables would 1 yard be enough? I'm quite confused, below are the links from the vendors.

Thanks a bunch!

OK, one yard = 36 inches.
So if your table is 54" long you would need 1 and 3/4 yard for each table which will give you 63 inches. You need to figure in a drop off the table too.
Make sure the fabric is wide enough to cover the width of your tables.
