Examples
1
Consider that the average distance from Earth to the Sun is 1 astronomical unit (AU). Convert this distance from astronomical units to Yards.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 1
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to yards is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 1 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 1 / 6.112386464567555e-12
Length(Yards) = 163602220801.454
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1 AU is equal to 163602220801.454 yd.
The length is 163602220801.454 yd, in yards.
2
Consider that the distance from Earth to Mars at its closest approach is approximately 0.5 astronomical units (AU). Convert this distance from astronomical units to Yards.
Answer:
Given:
The length in astronomical units is:
Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5
Formula:
The formula to convert length from astronomical units to yards is:
Substitute given weight Length(Astronomical Units) = 0.5 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 0.5 / 6.112386464567555e-12
Length(Yards) = 81801110400.727
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.5 AU is equal to 81801110400.727 yd.
The length is 81801110400.727 yd, in yards.

Astronomical Units
An astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length used in astronomy to measure distances within our solar system. One astronomical unit is equivalent to approximately 149,597,870.7 kilometers or about 92,955,807.3 miles.
The astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Astronomical units are used to express distances between celestial bodies within the solar system, such as the distances between planets and their orbits. They provide a convenient scale for describing and comparing distances in a way that is more manageable than using kilometers or miles.
Yards
A yard (symbol: yd) is a unit of length commonly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One yard is equal to 0.9144 meters.
The yard originated from various units used in medieval England. Its current definition is based on the international agreement of 1959, which standardized it to exactly 0.9144 meters.
Yards are often used to measure distances in sports fields, textiles, and land. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the yard remains in use in these countries.
