Conversion formula

The conversion factor from yards to kilometers is 0.0009144, which means that 1 yard is equal to 0.0009144 kilometers:

1 yd = 0.0009144 km

To convert 1200 yards into kilometers we have to multiply 1200 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from yards to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 yd → 0.0009144 km

1200 yd → L_(km)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in kilometers:

L_(km) = 1200 yd × 0.0009144 km

L_(km) = 1.09728 km

The final result is:

1200 yd → 1.09728 km

We conclude that 1200 yards is equivalent to 1.09728 kilometers:
