This length unit converter dynamically calculates a value you enter in feet (ft) and converts it to yards (yd), or a value you enter in feet & inches (ft & in) and converts it to yards (y).
How many feet (ft) are in 1 yard (yd)? What is the formula for how to convert feet to yards (ft to yd)?
1 foot (ft) = 0.33333333333333 yard (yd)
So we can say that there is 0.33333333333333 yard in 1 foot.
This means that the multiplication conversion factor to convert a quantity expressed in a foot unit of measurement to an equivalent quantity expressed in a yard unit of measurement is 0.33333333333333.
Inversely (or reciprocally),
1 yard (yd) = 3 feet (ft)
So we can say that there is 3 feet in 1 yard.
This means that the division conversion factor to convert a quantity expressed in a foot unit of measurement to an equivalent quantity expressed in a yard unit of measurement is 3.
Knowing this inverse mathematical relationship between the two conversion factors and their reciprocal operations, we can derive two formulas to calculate and convert a quantity of length expressed in feet to an equivalent quantity of length expressed in yards (ft to yd). Both formulas will yield the same result. The formulas are:
yd = ft × 0.33333333333333 → This is the formula based on the multiplication conversion factor.
and
yd = ft ÷ 3 → This is the formula based on the division conversion factor.
For example, if you have a length of 36 feet that you want to convert to yards, you would use either of the two formulas as follows:
yd = 36 ft × 0.33333333333333 = 12 yd
yd = 36 ft ÷ 3 = 12 yd
So, the result is the same using either formula, which is 12 yards.
Feet to yards (ft to yd) conversion chart
To save you time and effort spent on having to perform manual calculations or look up conversion formulas every time a conversion from feet to yards is needed, here is a feet-to-yards conversion chart for your quick and easy reference. This conversion chart (or conversion table) shows common measurement values of length in feet and their equivalent measurement values in yards. These equivalent measurement values may be rounded off to 1 or 2 decimal places when it is mathematically expedient for everyday applications.
