Conversion formula

The conversion factor from yards to feet is 3, which means that 1 yard is equal to 3 feet:

1 yd = 3 ft

To convert 240 yards into feet we have to multiply 240 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from yards to feet. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 yd → 3 ft

240 yd → L_(ft)

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

L_(ft) = 240 yd × 3 ft

L_(ft) = 720 ft

The final result is:

240 yd → 720 ft

We conclude that 240 yards is equivalent to 720 feet:

240 yards = 720 feet
