To convert 720 yards into meters we have to multiply 720 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from yards to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 yd → 0.9144 m

720 yd → L_(m)

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

L_(m) = 720 yd × 0.9144 m

L_(m) = 658.368 m

The final result is:

720 yd → 658.368 m

We conclude that 720 yards is equivalent to 658.368 meters:

720 yards = 658.368 meters
