To convert 970 miles into yards we have to multiply 970 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

970 mi → L_(yd)

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

L_(yd) = 970 mi × 1760 yd

L_(yd) = 1707200 yd

The final result is:

970 mi → 1707200 yd

We conclude that 970 miles is equivalent to 1707200 yards:

970 miles = 1707200 yards
