How to convert from yards to meters

Now that we know that 1 yard is 0.9144 meters, we can take advantage of this equivalence to deduce the formula that will allow us to convert from yards to meters:

mts = yards x 0.9144

100 yards x 0.9144 = 91.44 meters

Also in this case the conversion has been quite simple since when multiplying by 100 we have only had to move the decimal point two positions to the right. Let's look at another example in which we will convert 60 yards to meters:

60 yards x 0.9144 = 54.86 mts.

How to convert from meters to yards

Now that we know how to convert yards to meters, let's learn how to do the reverse conversion, that is, from meters to yards.
