Examples
1
Consider that the distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately 150 gigameters. Convert this distance from gigameters to Yards.
Answer:
Given:
The length in gigameters is:
Length(Gigameters) = 150
Formula:
The formula to convert length from gigameters to yards is:
Length(Yards) = Length(Gigameters) / 9.144e-10
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Gigameters) = 150 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 150 / 9.144e-10
Length(Yards) = 164041994750.6562
Final Answer:
Therefore, 150 Gm is equal to 164041994750.6562 yd.
The length is 164041994750.6562 yd, in yards.

Consider that the distance from Mars to Jupiter at their closest approach is about 550 gigameters. Convert this distance from gigameters to Yards.
Answer:
Given:
The length in gigameters is:
Length(Gigameters) = 550
Formula:
The formula to convert length from gigameters to yards is:
Length(Yards) = Length(Gigameters) / 9.144e-10
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Gigameters) = 550 in the above formula.
Length(Yards) = 550 / 9.144e-10
Length(Yards) = 601487314085.7393
Final Answer:
Therefore, 550 Gm is equal to 601487314085.7393 yd.
The length is 601487314085.7393 yd, in yards.

Gigameters
A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One gigameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192 miles.
The gigameter is defined as one billion meters, making it a measurement for extremely large distances, often used in astronomical contexts.
Gigameters are used in fields such as astronomy and space science to describe distances on a scale larger than megameters. They offer a convenient way to express the vast distances between celestial bodies and in large-scale cosmic phenomena.
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.
