Conversion formula
The conversion factor from yards to meters is 0.9144, which means that 1 yard is equal to 0.9144 meters:
1 yd = 0.9144 m
To convert 5.5 yards into meters we have to multiply 5.5 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from yards to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 yd → 0.9144 m
5.5 yd → L(m)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:
L(m) = 5.5 yd × 0.9144 m
L(m) = 5.0292 m
The final result is:
5.5 yd → 5.0292 m
We conclude that 5.5 yards is equivalent to 5.0292 meters:
5.5 yards = 5.0292 meters
Alternative conversion
We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 meter is equal to 0.19883878151595 × 5.5 yards.
Another way is saying that 5.5 yards is equal to 1 ÷ 0.19883878151595 meters.
Approximate result
For practical purposes we can round our final result to an approximate numerical value. We can say that five point five yards is approximately five point zero two nine meters:
5.5 yd ≅ 5.029 m
An alternative is also that one meter is approximately zero point one nine nine times five point five yards.
