The conversion factor from yards to miles is 0.00056818181818182, which means that 1 yard is equal to 0.00056818181818182 miles:

1 yd = 0.00056818181818182 mi

To convert 5500 yards into miles we have to multiply 5500 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from yards to miles. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 yd → 0.00056818181818182 mi

5500 yd → L_(mi)

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

L_(mi) = 5500 yd × 0.00056818181818182 mi

L_(mi) = 3.125 mi

The final result is:

5500 yd → 3.125 mi

We conclude that 5500 yards is equivalent to 3.125 miles:

5500 yards = 3.125 miles
