To convert a measurement in yards to a measurement in millimeters, multiply the length by the following conversion ratio: 914.4 millimeters/yard.

Since one yard is equal to 914.4 millimeters, you can use this simple formula to convert:

millimeters = yards × 914.4

The length in millimeters is equal to the length in yards multiplied by 914.4.

For example, here's how to convert 5 yards to millimeters using the formula above.
millimeters = (5 yd × 914.4) = 4,572 mm

How Many Millimeters Are in a Yard?

There are 914.4 millimeters in a yard, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

Our inch fraction calculator can add yards and millimeters together, and it also automatically converts the results to US customary, imperial, and SI metric values.

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

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.[1]

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.

What Is a Millimeter?

One millimeter is equal to one-thousandth (1/1,000) of a meter, which is defined as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second. One millimeter is equal to 0.0393701 inches.

The millimeter, or millimetre, is a multiple of the meter, which is the SI base unit for length. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10-3. Millimeters can be abbreviated as mm; for example, 1 millimeter can be written as 1 mm.

Millimeters are often represented by the smallest ticks on most metric rulers. To get a reference point of the size, the thickness of a US dime is 1.35mm.[2]

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.
