For other length unit conversions, please go to Length Conversion. Length units mile to yard conversion factor is 1760. To find out how many yards in miles, multiply by the factor or instead, use the converter below. 1 Mile = 1760 Yards. Mile is an imperial and U.S. customary unit and equals to 5280 feet. It is mostly used in united states and uk to measure the distance between two geographical locations. The abbreviation is mi. Yard is an imperial, U.S. customary unit. It equals to 3 feet or 36 inches. The abbreviation is yd.
In addition to the previous post. The 1650 yards is less than one mile. But they changed the 880 yards to 1000 yards which is more than one half mile. We use to swim 440 yards at some meets and 400 yards at some meet. They changed that to 500 yards which is more than one quarter mile. We also use to swim 220 yards at some meets and 200 yards at some meets, and they changed that to 200 yards which is less than 200 meters or one eighth of a mile. So some distances was more than the mile equivalent and some less than mile or part mile equivalent.
