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 4000 yards into feet we have to multiply 4000 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

4000 yd → L_(ft)

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

L_(ft) = 4000 yd × 3 ft

L_(ft) = 12000 ft

The final result is:

4000 yd → 12000 ft

We conclude that 4000 yards is equivalent to 12000 feet:

4000 yards = 12000 feet

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot is equal to 8.3333333333333E-5 × 4000 yards.

Another way is saying that 4000 yards is equal to 1 ÷ 8.3333333333333E-5 feet.

Approximate result

For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that four thousand yards is approximately twelve thousand feet:

4000 yd ≅ 12000 ft

An alternative is also that one foot is approximately zero times four thousand yards.
