1 Yard = 3 Foot
Key Formulas
Centimeter → Inch
in = cm × 0.393701Kilometer → Mile
mi = km × 0.621371Foot → Meter
m = ft × 0.3048Inch → Centimeter
cm = in × 2.54Formula
ft = yd × (0.9144 / 0.3048)A yard is 3 feet, so converting yards to feet multiplies by 0.9144 / 0.3048, which is 3. The international yard of 0.9144 m and foot of 0.3048 m make the ratio exact, so 100 yd is 300 ft. Football fields, fabric lengths, and fence or lawn measurements use this conversion. NIST Handbook 44 gives the yard definition. Older US survey units follow a separate definition that the NIST revised definitions describe.
