How to Convert Meters to Yards

To convert a measurement in meters to a measurement in yards, multiply the length by the following conversion ratio: 1.093613 yards/meter.

Since one meter is equal to 1.093613 yards, you can use this simple formula to convert:

yards = meters × 1.093613

The length in yards is equal to the length in meters multiplied by 1.093613.

For example, here's how to convert 5 meters to yards using the formula above.

yards = (5 m × 1.093613) = 5.468066 yd

How Many Yards Are in a Meter?

There are 1.093613 yards in a meter, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 m = 1.093613 yd

Meters and yards are both units used to measure length. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Meter?

According to the most recent 2019 definition, the meter is defined as the distance traveled by light in vacuum during a time interval with a duration of 1/299,792,458 of a second.[1] One meter is equal to 100 centimeters, 3.28084 feet, or 39.37 inches.

The meter, or metre, is the SI base unit for length in the metric system. Meters can be abbreviated as m; for example, 1 meter can be written as 1 m.

What Is a Yard?

The yard is a unit of length measurement equal to 3 feet or 36 inches. The international yard is legally defined to be equal to exactly 0.9144 meters.[2]

The yard is a US customary and imperial unit of length. Yards can be abbreviated as yd; for example, 1 yard can be written as 1 yd.

We recommend using a ruler or tape measure for measuring length, which can be found at a local retailer or home center. Rulers are available in imperial, metric, or a combination of both values, so make sure you get the correct type for your needs.
