To convert 550 miles into yards we have to multiply 550 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from miles to yards. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 mi → 1760 yd

550 mi → L_(yd)

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

L_(yd) = 550 mi × 1760 yd

L_(yd) = 968000 yd

The final result is:

550 mi → 968000 yd

We conclude that 550 miles is equivalent to 968000 yards:

550 miles = 968000 yards
