Before we get into discussing how to convert yards to meters, lets define a yard. A yard is a unit of length in the U.S. Customary System which is equivalent to 3 feet and is abbreviated as yd.
While a meter is a metric unit of length and is abbreviated as m.
Formula to Convert Yards to Meters.
Since we know that 1 yard is equivalent to 0.9144 meters.
We can say that, to convert yards to m we multiply the yards by 0.9144.
Length in m = Length in yd x 0.9144
Example 1:
Convert 200 yd to meters.
= 200 x 0.9144
= 38.88 meters.
Example 2:
Suppose the dimensions of a football field are 115 yards in length and 55 yards in width, what are the dimensions of the field in meters.
Since 1 yard is equivalent to 0.9144 meters.
Length
= 115 x 0.9144
= 105.156 meters.
Width
= 55 x 0.9144
= 50.292 meters.
