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 501 yards into feet we have to multiply 501 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

501 yd → L_(ft)

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

L_(ft) = 501 yd × 3 ft

L_(ft) = 1503 ft

The final result is:

501 yd → 1503 ft

We conclude that 501 yards is equivalent to 1503 feet:

501 yards = 1503 feet

Alternative conversion

We can also convert by utilizing the inverse value of the conversion factor. In this case 1 foot is equal to 0.00066533599467731 × 501 yards.
