Conversion formula

The conversion factor from yards to kilometers is 0.0009144, which means that 1 yard is equal to 0.0009144 kilometers:

1 yd = 0.0009144 km

To convert 506 yards into kilometers we have to multiply 506 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from yards to kilometers. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 yd → 0.0009144 km

506 yd → L_(km)

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

L_(km) = 506 yd × 0.0009144 km

L_(km) = 0.4626864 km

The final result is:

506 yd → 0.4626864 km

We conclude that 506 yards is equivalent to 0.4626864 kilometers:
