What is a yard?
A yard is exactly 0.9144 meters, or three feet. It was once described as the distance from a king's nose to the tip of his outstretched thumb, but since 1959 it has been defined against the meter instead.
Yards show up in fabric shops, in landscaping deliveries, and above all in American football, where the field is 100 yards between the goal lines. A yard is a little shorter than a meter, so a 100-yard dash is slightly shorter than a 100-meter one.
In writing, the yard is usually shortened to "yd". One yard is 0.9144 meters, and that ratio is what every figure on this page is built from.
