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 5040 yards into feet we have to multiply 5040 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

5040 yd → L_(ft)

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

L_(ft) = 5040 yd × 3 ft

L_(ft) = 15120 ft

The final result is:

5040 yd → 15120 ft

We conclude that 5040 yards is equivalent to 15120 feet:

5040 yards = 15120 feet
