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 1600 yards into kilometers we have to multiply 1600 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

1600 yd → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 1600 yd × 0.0009144 km

L_(km) = 1.46304 km

The final result is:

1600 yd → 1.46304 km

We conclude that 1600 yards is equivalent to 1.46304 kilometers:

1600 yards = 1.46304 kilometers
