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 1500 yards into kilometers we have to multiply 1500 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

1500 yd → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1500 yd × 0.0009144 km

L_(km) = 1.3716 km

The final result is:

1500 yd → 1.3716 km

We conclude that 1500 yards is equivalent to 1.3716 kilometers:

1500 yards = 1.3716 kilometers
