How the yards to meters conversion works

The converter applies metres = yards × 0.9144. The yard has been defined as exactly 0.9144 m since the 1959 international yard and pound agreement, and one yard is exactly 3 feet. Going the other way, yards = metres ÷ 0.9144.

Worked example: an American football field is 100 yards long, which is 100 × 0.9144 = 91.44 m. A 10 yard first down is 9.144 m. For shorter distances in feet, use our feet to meters converter.

yards to meters converter questions

How many meters are in a yard?
Exactly 0.9144 m. The yard was fixed at 0.9144 m by the 1959 international yard and pound agreement, so the conversion is exact.
How do I convert yards to meters?
Multiply by 0.9144: metres = yards × 0.9144. So 100 yd is 91.44 m and 50 yd is 45.72 m. Type any figure above.
How do I convert meters to yards?
Divide by 0.9144: yards = metres ÷ 0.9144. So 100 m is ≈ 109.361 yd and a 10 m room is ≈ 10.936 yd. Switch the direction above to do it.
How long is a football field in meters?
100 yards × 0.9144 = 91.44 m between the goal lines (120 yards, or 109.73 m, including both end zones). A soccer pitch is typically 100–110 m long, so a touch longer than a football field.
Is a yard the same in the US and the UK?
Yes — since 1959 the US and UK yards are identical at 0.9144 m. Before that they differed by about two parts per million, far too small to matter for any everyday measurement.
