Primarily used in horse racing (UK/US). 1 furlong = 660 feet = 1/8 mile. The Yard (yd) is often used in sports and fabric measurements. A football field is 100 yards long, a yardstick is 1 yard, and a swimming pool can be around 25 yards in length. It’s a common unit in the United States and the UK for measuring land and fabrics.
To convert between Furlong (fur) and Yard (yd), use the following formulas:
1 Furlong (fur) = 220 Yard (yd)
1 Yard (yd) = 0.004545454545454545 Furlong (fur)
1 fur = 1 * 220 yd = 220 yd
5 fur = 5 * 220 yd = 1100 yd
8 fur = 8 * 220 yd = 1760 yd
| Furlong (fur) | Yard (yd) |
|---|---|
| 1 fur | 220 yd |
| 5 fur | 1100 yd |
| 10 fur | 2200 yd |
