How to convert yards to miles
Any physical quantity can be written as:
Q = nu , where n= numerical value and u = unit used
We know that:
1 yd = 0.000568182 mi
1 mi = 1760 yd
So, you can easily convert your quantity in yards to miles by simply multiply it by 0.000568182
Hence, general formula to convert yards to miles:
p(mi) = 0.000568182 × p(yd), where p is the numerical value
For example:
Convert 25 yards to miles
25 yd = 25 × 0.000568182 mi = 0.0142045 mi
