Convert Kilometers to Yards
1 kilometer is 1,093.61 yd. One kilometer is exactly 1093.61329834 yards.
One kilometer is 1093.6133 yards. To convert kilometers to yards, multiply by 1093.6133; to go the other way, divide by 1093.6133 or multiply by 9.1440 × 10^-4. The relation is exact but the figure is not: it is a rounding of a number that does not terminate, and it follows from NIST. One thousand meters, and about 0.621 miles.

Factors are entered by hand from NIST rather than derived from a units library, so the ones that terminate are exact rather than rounded.
The same converter answers this pair however it is written: kilometres to yards is the British spelling of the same units — the metre and the litre are spelled that way outside the United States and the quantity does not change.
How do you convert kilometers to yards? The converter and the working
- 1.Take the measurement in kilometers.
- 2.Multiply by 1093.6133 — that is how many yards fit in one kilometer.
- 3.To go back the other way, divide by 1093.6133, or multiply by 9.1440 × 10^-4.
Worked example: 25 kilometers to yards
- Formula
- km × 1093.6133 = yd
- Arithmetic
- 25 × 1093.6133 = 27,340.33 yd
- Answer
- 25 km = 27,340.33 yd
The factor is rounded for display; the figure above is computed from the full value.

What is a kilometer?
One thousand meters, and about 0.621 miles.
What is a yard?
Three feet, or exactly 0.9144 meters. Concrete and fabric are both sold by it.
How many yards are in a kilometer?
One kilometer is 1093.6133 yards. Going the other way, one yard is 9.1440 × 10^-4 kilometers. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
