How the Conversion Works
This calculator uses a two-step conversion process through meters (m) as the base unit, which is the standard unit of length in the International System of Units (SI).
Conversion Formula:
Step 1: Convert from yd to meters (m)
Value in m = Input value ÷ 1.09361
Step 2: Convert from meters (m) to mi
Result = Value in m × 0.000621371
Simplified Formula:
Result = Input × 0.0005681834
Where 0.0005681834 is the conversion factor from yd to mi
Example Calculation:
Let's convert 16 yd to mi:
16 yd ÷ 1.09361 = 14.630444 m 14.630444 m × 0.000621371 = 0.009091 mi Result: 16 yd = 0.009091 mi
