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 512 yards into feet we have to multiply 512 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

512 yd → L_(ft)

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

L_(ft) = 512 yd × 3 ft

L_(ft) = 1536 ft

The final result is:

512 yd → 1536 ft

We conclude that 512 yards is equivalent to 1536 feet:

512 yards = 1536 feet
